Is Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi the Premier League’s most madcap star?

Michy Batshuayi has taken his love for SpongeBob Squarepants to the next level after the Chelsea striker dressed up as his favourite cartoon character in a bizarre tribute to Alicia Keys.

The Belgian has never been shy regarding his affection towards the Deep Sea character, but in his biggest display yet the 23-year-old donned a full outfit featuring SponeBob's face on both his t-shirt and shorts.

He completed his look with a yellow cap, yellow flip-flops and socks featuring other characters from the show, all in honour of superstar Keys who shares Batshuayi's SpongeBob love.
