Chelsea icon Frank Lampard thrilled with new boy Alvaro Morata so far: 'He's a very complete striker'

Chelsea legend Frank Lampard has hailed the performances of his former side's new forward Alvaro Morata, going as far as to describe the Spaniard as 'a very complete striker'.

The 25-year-old has scored seven league goals in 10 games for Chelsea since joining from Real Madrid for £55million this summer.

Morata, who is currently part of Julen Loptegui's Spanish squad to face Japan and Russia, left the Bernabeu for West London having grown frustrated with the lack of opportunities following his move back home from Juventus.
