Borussia Dortmund linked with a move for Alvaro Morata

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.
