Michy Batshuayi is a January target for Newcastle United, according to reports in The Mag.

Batshuayi is another player off the incredible Belgian conveyor belt, and despite only being 22-years-old, he has already scored 60 career goals and made 158 appearances.

He started his career with Standard Liège in the Belgian Pro League, for whom he made 71 appearances and scored 31 goals.

Because of those goalscoring records, Marseille made a bid for him in the summer of 2014 and snapped up the player for a relatively cheap £4.20m, and largely used him as a bench player last season.

It is during the 2015/2016 campaign, however, that he has come to the fore and both player and club have been rewarded with goals – as he has scored six and assisted two in nine starts this season.

Batshuayi is a strong striker, who has quick feet for a big man, and is able to score a range of goals from a variety of distances. Click through the pages as Newcastle Toons bring you his top five strikes.
