Atletico Madrid preparing permanent bid for Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata?

Atletico Madrid are reportedly preparing a permanent bid for Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata, who is currently spending an 18-month loan deal at the club.

Atletico Madrid are reportedly prepared to push through a permanent deal for Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata.

The 26-year-old spent the second half of the last campaign at Wanda Metropolitano, contributing a total of six goals and one assist from 15 outings in La Liga.

However, Chelsea have allegedly threatened to cut short Morata's 18-month loan spell if Atletico do not add the player to their squad on a full-time basis.

According to The Telegraph, that has resulted in Atletico showing a willingness to meet Chelsea's demands, despite their insistence on a fee said to be in the region of £50m.

The report indicates that the Spanish side may have to wait until they sell Antoine Griezmann before completing the transfer.

Morata has little desire to return to the Premier League after a disappointing year-and-a-half at Stamford Bridge.
