Chelsea could agree deal with Real Madrid for star-crossed Morata

According to the Express, Chelsea could agree a deal with Real Madrid for Alvaro Morata to return to the Santiago Bernabéu for the third time.

The Spanish international has struggled for form ever since making the move to England last summer and could return at the end of the season as a result.

Morata has scored 13 goals in 39 games in all competitions for Chelsea this season and hasn’t scored in the Premier League since December 2017.

The £100k-per-week star-crossed striker hasn’t had much good fortune come his way at Stamford Bridge, enduring a 13-game scoring drought before netting against Leicester City in the FA Cup in mid-March.
