I still think the best deal here is a loan with an option to buy.

The deal for Bats, if we are to believe the rumour is that it’s a loan deal with an obligation to buy. If that is truly the case then we are very likely to buy him permanently and he would have to be considered the clubs main striker.

Any other forward is for competition and depth...even if we do play two strikers. Are we really in a hurry to spend 25m on a substitute? I say get him on loan with an option to buy for a set fee. If that was possible of course.

Last I read, Palace had an option not obligation to buy....

Chelsea have handed Batshuayi a one-year contract extension, to protect his value and prevent him from leaving Stamford Bridge for free next summer. He will again wear the No 23 shirt for the club. Palace have an option — rather than an obligation — to purchase Batshuayi permanently at the end of the loan

I’ve not read anything official for either case. There have been rumours that it’s an obligation to buy...but the signing of a new deal does make that less likely else why bother with the new deal if we are obligated to buy him. Then again if the obligation is triggered by appearances for example then Chelsea would be wise to have a new contract in place in case of injury.

The jury is out on this one. Perhaps after a few goals there will be questions asked about whether Palace want him long term.

Maybe we haven’t got the money to buy him this season and Chelsea are just protecting their asset from leaving for free next year.

I thought I'd read somewhere that the loan was with an option to buy BUT the buying price had been fixed at £20m. In other words, if we wanted him at the end of the loan we would be OBLIGED to pay that sum.

But that may simply have been rumour or hear-say (or I might have even dreamt it

That was also my understanding. But I too may have had the same dream. I can't claim it's the gospel truth.

I don't think it's been quoted anywhere official so, as we are all well aware, most of what we have read on sports news websites is nothing but guess work.

What I would add is Palace certainly added an obligation to buy into the Sorloth loan deal, so it's certainly possible that they see that as a good way to do business.

My point though in bringing up Bats, is that if he does well I can see him staying. So are Palace going to go out and spend another £25m on a second striker?

It's a good question, but in my opinion, it's absolutely essential to buy another striker. Sadly neither Benteke nor Wickham have proved effective, so we have to find ways to move them on, even at a loss

Liverpool apparently want £25m and a buy back option,with Sheffield United being in pole position and barely a wimper from us.
At age 20,he would certainly bring down the average age of our aging squad!!

The premature disclosures on Sky didn't help our cause. Remains to be seen whether an actual bid will materialise. But a new young striker seems to be our main remaining priority, so with time beginning to run out, something better happen soon!

I think it's an okay price if not all up front. I will stick my neck out and say he will be a proven striker. He's the best I've seen us linked with recently. He's a mixture of pace, power, strength and some skill. The buy back clause is a strange one. Why sell if you're convinced he'll come good? Just loan him out. No big deal.

Going by tonight’s score from Liverpool’s second string they don’t need him that badly.

We would be mad to buy him. We’ve now got a great line up of forwards. Where will the money come from ? Unless of course our directors are paying. Preservation is the name of the game. It’s all about to get very messy financially in the football world. We are fine as we are now.
