Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is a huge fan of Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata and is reportedly interested in bringing the striker to Stamford Bridge this summer.

Conte tried signing Morata last summer but Real Madrid opted against selling the striker but after failing to hold down a regular first-team place in Real Madrid, Morata has reportedly told Real Madrid that he wants to leave Bernabeu this summer according to Spanish football expert Guillem Balague.

“Real Madrid don’t want to sell Morata but he wants to go,” Balague told Sky Sports.

“It’s an issue that needs resolving this summer.”
