#2. Michy Batshuayi

Michy Batshuayi's career never really took off since he joined Chelsea.

A lot was expected from Michy Batshuayi after he completed his £40 million move to Chelsea in 2016, but things have clearly not gone the way of the Belgium international. It's been three years since Batshusyi moved to Chelsea and the striker has managed to make only 53 appearances for them. And in those three years, he has been sent out on loan to 3 different clubs and he never managed to find his form at any of them.

Now with Chelsea's transfer appeal being rejected by FIFA, Batshuayi might finally get a chance at Chelsea next season. But if Maurizio Sarri really believed in his abilities as a striker he would not have sent him out on loan to Valencia at the start of this season. And then when Chelsea was after a new striker following their struggles with Alvaro Morata, they could have just called back Batshuayi instead of going after Gonzalo Higuain.

So it's clear that Sarri is not a big fan of the Belgium striker and even if Sarri does decide to give him a chance at Chelsea next season, he will have to spend a lot of time on the bench. Batshuayi is 25 right now and he will want to start every game for whichever team he plays for.

With Morata, Tammy Abraham and possibly Oliver Giroud set to be Chelsea's strikers next season, Batshuayi should definitely look to leave Chelsea this summer and restart his career somewhere else as he looks to live up to the potential everyone thought he was capable of achieving.
