Alvaro Morata linked with Man United move

Reports now suggest that Man United have been offered the chance to sign Morata from Atletico Madrid.

ESPN claims Atletico boss Diego Simeone is ready to part ways with the Spanish forward, who has just a year left on his current deal with the La Liga giants.

The 29-year-old is no stranger to the Premier League, having previously turned out for Chelsea.

Morata signed for the Blues in 2017 at a time he was projected to join Manchester United.

The Spanish forward boasts a rather impressive cv having spent his entire football career with top clubs in the world, including Chelsea, Juventus, Real Madrid and Atletico.
