Chelsea urge supporters to stop anti-Semitic songs as Alvaro Morata distances himself from chant

Chelsea have ordered their own supporters to stop singing new song about Alvaro Morata because of its anti-Semitic content.

Morata, the club's £75million record signing from Real Madrid, scored his third goal in as many games as the Premier League champions won 2-1 at Leicester.

The Spain international has made a fabulous start to his new career and was hailed by the travelling fans but the terrace chant which taunts London rivals Tottenham with the Y-word has not gone down well.
