Potential replacements for Michy Batshuayi at Chelsea

Batsh
Batshuayi has never lived up to expectations at Chelsea.

#5 Aritz Adruiz (Athletic Bilbao)

Adruiz can provide invaluable experience for Chelsea in attack

The Spaniard is already 36-years of age but he is still a very good backup option until Tammy Abraham becomes solid enough to lead the front-line alongside Morata.

An eternal goal-getter, Adruiz offers more of an aerial threat than Chelsea's previous target Llorente and the team's current main man; Morata.

The Bilbao striker has scored a total of 12 goals and provided 2 assists in all competitions so far this season and has won 3.6 aerial duels per game this season.

He provides a great combination of technique and experience as he has played more than 200 matches for Bilbao since joining the team in 2012. He has also scored more than 100 goals in all competitions.

He has also represented Spanish national team 13 times and scored twice and given the fact that young sensation Abraham still needs time to grow away from the spotlight, Adruiz seems a great signing that can provide a superb backup plan for manager Antonio Conte.

His current market value will be just around £1.5 million as he is in the final year of his contract and also given his age.
