He claims that Chelsea are trying to sign Gonzalo Higuain on loan from Juventus until the end of the season, which would trigger Morata’s move to Atletico.
Romano says that talks are at an advanced stage and Atletico are closing in on a deal for the Spanish international – who started his career with their local rivals Real Madrid.
Chelsea are hoping to secure the signing of Higuain, who has scored six Serie A goals on loan to AC Milan this season.
