Batshuayi on Fire: Reaches 17 goals!
Michy Batshuayi has been soaring in recent weeks. For the Belgian star who was labeled as the 'European goal scorer' at the beginning of the season, the playing field no longer matters!
The experienced player found the net twice yesterday, reaching a total of 17 goals in 29 official matches.
After the transfer of Edin Dzeko, Batshuayi seemed to be overshadowed by the Bosnian forward. Ismail Kartal consistently favored Dzeko in the Super Lig, a league he attaches great importance to. Batshuayi, however, found opportunities in the Conference League and made the most of them. Despite scoring 5 goals in Europe, the Belgian forward struggled to secure a regular spot and score in the league until the 17th week. The tide turned for the 30-year-old forward, dubbed the ‘European goal scorer’, during the away game against Kayserispor, where he scored a hat-trick. With his form improving in recent weeks, Michy Batshuayi scored 6 goals in the league, making an impact with 4 goals against Adanaspor in the 5th round of the Ziraat Turkish Cup.
3 assists to his name
Now a nightmare for goalkeepers regardless of the tournament, the Belgian player added two more goals, one from a penalty, against Gaziantep in the cup round of 16, guiding his team to the quarter-finals. With this, the experienced forward has found the net 17 times in 29 official matches. Additionally, he has 3 assists to his name.
