Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata is wanted by Juventus this summer but according to fresh reports, Borussia Dortmund have also joined the race for his signature.
Morata endured a difficult first season in English football despite getting off to an impressive start. He was rotated with Olivier Giroud in the second-half of the season and struggled to cope with the intensity of the Premier League.
The Spanish forward is understood to be a priority target for Juventus, with claims having been made that he’d be keen on a return to Turin.
However, according to a report from German news outlet Bild, as cited by talkSPORT, Dortmund are also keen to make a surprise swoop for the striker this summer.
Peter Stoger’s side remain keen to land Michy Batshuayi on a permanent deal from Chelsea after the Belgian international impressed during his six-month loan spell in the Bundesliga.
Although, if this move falls through, it seems they will target a different Chelsea attacker in the form of Morata.
