体坛英语资讯：Goal machine Batshuayi proves both curse and blessing for Dortmund

Batshuayi confirmed his ambitions regarding the Belgian World Cup squad and said he is not thinking about the time after the World Cup. It is yet to be decided if he will return to Chelsea after the season. "I am happy to help my current team and hope we can win the Euro League," Batshuayi emphasized.

While Batshuayi's future in Dortmund remains uncertain, the on-loan-striker already made the side forget about his predecessor Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gabon-rooted forward joined Arsenal after a 63.5 million euro deal having caused trouble before; he is said to have blackmailed the Borussia to allow him to leave.

Aubameyang has scored 141 goals in 213 games for Dortmund.

Coach Peter Stoeger praised Batshuayi's attitude and at the same time indicated Aubameyang's working ethics were not the best, at least during his last months in Dortmund. "As you can see he likes to play here and he wants to prove himself," the Austrian-born coach said after Batshuayi's two goals against Italian side Atlanta Bergamo in the Euro League.

In his first two Bundesliga games, the 1.85-meter tall striker scored twice against Cologne and once against Hamburg.

Stoeger said it is evident that Batshuayi is highly motivated as he is trying to qualify for the Belgian 2018 World Cup squad. 2017 World Champion and Dortmund midfielder Mario Goetze said Batshuayi has excellent qualities as "he is moving quickly, has instinct and he is scoring. Enough reason's to be happy with him."
