Standard Liege
[
edit

Born in
Brussels
to
Congolese
parents,
[4]
Batshuayi had a nomadic youth career with spells at Evere, Schaarbeek,
Brussels
(twice) and
Anderlecht
before he joined
Standard Liege
.
[5]
Batshuayi made his debut for the senior team on 20 February 2011 in a 4?1 loss away to
Gent
, replacing
Franck Berrier
for the last seven minutes.
[6]
Six days later, he made his only other appearance of the
Belgian Pro League
season
, filling in for
Aloys Nong
in the last minute of a 3?0 victory against
KV Mechelen
at the
Stade Maurice Dufrasne
.
[7]
On 21 July, Batshuayi was an unused
substitute
in the
2011 Belgian Super Cup
, a 1?0 loss to Gent.
[8]
On 15 December, he scored his first professional goal, the only one away to
Copenhagen
in the last match of Group B during the
2011?12 UEFA Europa League
group stage, advancing his team into the knockout stages.
[9]
Six days later, he added two more in a 2?1 win at
Lierse
in the quarter-final first leg of the
Belgian Cup
, although his side lost 5?4 on aggregate.
[10]
He scored his first league goal on 14 January 2012 to round off a 6?1 home win over
Germinal Beerschot
,
[11]
and ended the campaign with six. He was sent-off as a substitute in a 3?2 loss at Genk on 22 April for stamping on the chest of
Jeroen Simaeys
, for which the
Royal Belgian Football Association
suspended him for four matches.
[12]
Batshuayi was again sent-off on 25 September 2012 in a 3?2 win at
Mouscron
in the sixth round of the Belgian Cup, having elbowed Benjamin Delacourt within the first half-hour; he was suspended for the next two matches of the competition and fined €200.
[13]
In an interview a month later, he said he felt "destroyed" by the suspension.
[14]
He recorded 12 goals in 26 matches over the campaign, including two on 19 May 2013 to decide a 4?3 home win over
Lokeren
.
[15]
In the
2013?14 season
, Batshuayi scored 21 goals in 34 matches, putting him in second place for the league's top scorer behind Lokeren's
Hamdi Harbaoui
.
[5]
This tally included a first professional
hat-trick
on 15 September in a 4?2 win at
Oostende
.
[16]
He was awarded the
Ebony Shoe Award
for the season's best player of African origin, ahead of Harbaoui.
[17]
Marseille
[
edit
]
On 8 August 2014, Batshuayi signed with French club
Marseille
for a £4.5 million transfer fee.
[18]
[19]
He made his debut the next day as Marseille began the
Ligue 1
season with a 3?3 draw at
Bastia
, replacing
Dimitri Payet
with 11 minutes remaining. On 29 October, he scored his first goal for the club to open a 2?1 defeat at
Rennes
in the third round of the
Coupe de la Ligue
.
[20]
He scored nine league goals for
Marcelo Bielsa
's team, despite rarely starting matches.
[5]
On 22 February 2015, within five minutes of coming on for
Andre-Pierre Gignac
, he scored twice away to
Saint-Etienne
in an eventual 2?2 draw.
[21]
In March, he added further braces in away victories at
Toulouse
and
Lens
(6?1 and 4?0 respectively), the latter after taking Gignac's place at half-time.
[22]
[23]
On 23 August 2015, Batshuayi scored his first goals of the season, a brace, in a 6?0 victory over
Troyes
.
[24]
Soon after, club president Vincent Lebrune said, "There is not a single top 15 world club that is not interested in Batshuayi. He is one of the most wanted players on the market. There were a lot of offers for him this summer, but he didn't want to leave. He's proving himself on the pitch, and if clubs want him then they are going to have to pay around €50m."
[5]
By the mid-season break, he had 11 goals from 19 matches, behind only
arch-rival
Paris Saint-Germain
's
Zlatan Ibrahimovi?
, with Marseille in tenth in the league table and PSG in first.
[5]
Batshuayi finished the league season with 17 goals. He added two more goals from five games in the
Coupe de France
, one being in
the final
, where Marseille lost 4?2 to PSG on 21 May 2016.
[25]
Chelsea

2016?17 season
[
edit
]
In April 2016, English
Premier League
club
West Ham United
were reported as the favourites to sign Batshuayi, having offered a €35 million bid.
[26]
Two months later, their London neighbours
Crystal Palace
made a €38 million (£31.5 million) bid which would have made him their record signing, while Italian champions
Juventus
were also among the interested parties.
[19]
Although Palace's bid was accepted, Batshuayi did not want to make the move, instead engaging with a €40 million (£33.2 million) offer from
Chelsea
, for which he left Belgium's
UEFA Euro 2016
squad to undergo a medical.
[27]
On 3 July, he signed a five-year deal at Chelsea.
[28]
He was the first signing by their new manager
Antonio Conte
, and said his aim was to get the team back to winning the Premier League and qualifying for the
UEFA Champions League
.
[29]
Batshuayi added he was eager to work alongside their midfielder
Oscar
.
[30]
Batshuayi joined Chelsea for pre-season in Austria, and on 20 July, he made his debut in a
friendly
against
Wolfsberger AC
.
[31]
A day later, he scored his first two goals in an 8?0 friendly victory against Atus Ferlach.
[32]
On 15 August, Batshuayi made his competitive debut in Chelsea's opening match of the
2016?17 season
, coming off the substitutes' bench to set-up
Diego Costa

[33]
Five days later, after replacing Oscar, he went on to score his first Premier League goal in a victory by the same score at
Watford
.
[34]
On 23 August, Batshuayi made his first start for Chelsea in the
EFL Cup
, scoring a brace in a 3?2 home victory against

Premier League
title.
[36]
In the 82nd minute, he slotted a goal past goalkeeper
Ben Foster
to win Chelsea their fifth Premier League title.
[37]
Batshuayi went on to score three goals in Chelsea's final two matches, including the last goal of the season in the 92nd minute of Chelsea's 5?1 win over
Sunderland
at
Stamford Bridge
. Batshuayi finished the season with 5 goals in only 236 minutes of Premier League action, equaling a rate of one goal every 47 minutes.

, where he scored twice and had a third disallowed via the
video assistant referee

monkey noises
" during the match.
[46]
In March,
UEFA
's investigation led to both teams being fined for use of pyrotechnics and other crowd disturbances, but Batshuayi's allegations of racism were dismissed. He criticised European football's governing body for their judgement.
[47]

Schalke 04
on 15 April, Batshuayi injured his ankle ligaments and was ruled out for the remainder of the season.
