Juventus are willing to offer €30m for West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur target Michy Batshuayi, but Marseille want more money for the striker.

The 22-year-old is almost certain to leave Marseille this summer as the Ligue 1 outfit are looking to cash in on the striker to ease the crippling financial situation they have found themselves in.




Batshuayi has spoken about his love for the Premier League in recent weeks, and it has been speculated that West Ham and Tottenham are currently leading the chase for his signature.

However, Juventus have stepped up on their interest in the player since losing Alvaro Morata to Real Madrid and have signalled their intent to sign the Belgian this summer.
 


The Italian champions were reportedly unwilling to break the €25m glass ceiling for the Belgian, but according to Turin-based Italian daily Tuttosport, the club are now willing to offer €30m, including bonuses.

However, Marseille are not keen to lose the player at such a figure and are looking at a fee of around €38m to €40m to sit at the negotiating with the striker’s suitors.

Juventus remain confident of landing the striker and are hoping to negotiate a reasonable price for Batshuayi with the French club in the coming months.

He has a contract until 2020 with Marseille.
