Just when you thought the links of Alvaro Morata were slowly fading away amid AC Milan’s reported big-money offer for the Spain international, the striker is once again looking more and more likely to join Chelsea this summer.
According to Diario Gol, Morata is not open to move to the Serie A side this summer as he wants to reunite with Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge.
AC Milan had reportedly launched a huge £52m offer for Morata, which Real Madrid would have been more than pleased to accept as it had been over double of what the Spanish side paid to re-sign from Juventus last summer.
However, the 24-year-old hitman has other plans, and according to the source, Morata he has an ‘unsigned agreement’ with Chelsea.
Chelsea have tabled an offer worth £35m – which is reportedly too little for the club to accept – and Morata is ready to stay put should his move to West London not materialize.
