Michy Batshuayi underwent medical amid Chelsea link - Belgium boss

PARIS -- Belgium coach Marc Wilmots says Michy Batshuayi was allowed to leave the team's training camp just outside Bordeaux on Wednesday to undergo a medical examination at a nearby hospital.

The Marseille striker has been heavily linked with a move to Chelsea in the Premier League.

Wilmots said Marseille requested that Batshuayi was freed for two hours to have a medical, adding: "I just ordered the taxi."

Batshuayi scored for Belgium with his first touch of the ball after coming on as a substitute in the 4-0 win over Hungary in the round of 16.
