Koke Says Alvaro Morata Would Be 'Welcome' at Atletico Amid Chelsea Exit Rumours

Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke has praised Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata and has said his Spain international team-mate would be "welcome" in the Spanish capital.

According to Goal, Atletico are interested in taking Morata on loan for the remainder of the season, as he has struggled to make an impression this term at Stamford Bridge under Maurizio Sarri. It's said Sevilla are also admirers of the former Real Madrid and Juventus man.

Speaking about Morata, Koke said he would love to see him at the Wanda Metropolitano and thinks he still has plenty to offer, per Ainhoa Sanchez of Marca:
