Arsenal in talks with Real Madrid over Alvaro Morata transfer?

Report: Arsenal close in on Morata

Arsenal have reportedly reopened talks with Real Madrid over a deal to bring striker Alvaro Morata to the Emirates.

The 21-year-old is said to be a long-term target for the Gunners, while Champions League winners Madrid are now willing to negotiate a deal, according to The Telegraph.

The report suggests that Arsenal made unsuccessful enquiries over the youngster in January, but Real will now sell Morata with a buy-back clause added into his contract.

Morata, who joined the Spanish giants in 2008 from Getafe, has also been linked with a move to both Juventus and Tottenham Hotspur in recent times.

Madrid president Florentino Perez recently hinted at a potential loan move for the Spaniard.
