The Marseilles striker has already hinted that his future lies away from the south of France.

And the 22-year-old let the whole of Europe sit up and take notice after an instant impact in Belgium's 4-0 win over Hungary on Sunday.

Batshuayi came on to replace Romelu Lukaku with 15 minutes to play against Hungary and Marc Wilmots’ team leading 1-0.

And with his first touch, the Belgian forward slotted home a low cross from Eden Hazard to double his team’s lead in the last-16 clash.

Spurs are yet to meet Marseilles’ asking price for the former Standard Liege man and are also hesitant over his wage demands, which would make him the joint-highest earner at the club.

And it seems like Crystal Palace have made the first move in an attempt to land the Belgian.
