Bilic breaks silence on Batshuayi

Slaven Bilic corrected a reporter who mispronounced Batshuayi in yesterday’s pre match press conference telling them to do their homework. The media were asking Slaven if rumours that West Ham have made a £31m bid for the Marseille striker were true.

Slav answered “Michy Batshuayi, he’s a top striker, playing for Marseille, big club scoring goals there, very young Belgium international, already a few years playing at the top level scoring goals, either for Standard Liège or Marseille now, he’s a very good player yes, that’s all I can say now at this moment but about these offers it is simply not true what is in the papers, as usual”
