Chelsea plan €65M bid for Real Madrid striker Morata

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is chasing Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata.

AS says Conte has made Morata's signing a priority this summer.

The Italian has told Blues owner Roman Abramovich to sign the former Juventus striker at the end of this season.

Chelsea are willing to pay €65 million for Morata, which would be welcomed by Real, which paid €30 million to re-sign him from Juve last summer.

For the moment, those close to negotiations say the striker will be wearing Chelsea Blue next season.
