Top 24-year-old striker tells Mourinho he wants to play for Man United – report
Alvaro Morata tells Jose Mourinho that he wants to play for Manchester United next season, according to reports
Alvaro Morata has told Jose Mourinho that he wants to play for Manchester United next season, according to reports in the British media.
The Daily Telegraph is reporting that Morata has spoken to the Manchester United boss about the possibility of moving to Old Trafford this summer.
It is claimed that the 24-year-old Real Madrid striker has indicated his desire to line up for the Red Devils next season, despite reported interest from Chelsea.
Morata has been relentlessly linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent weeks and it would seem that the player’s apparent desire to push through a move could help Manchester United be able to wrap up a deal for the Spain international.
The same story claims that the there is a “strong mutual admiration” between Morata and Mourinho, with the striker having been handed his full Real Madrid debut by the Portuguese coach back in 2010.
Manchester United have been linked with many players this summer – but the Red Devils have so far only confirmed the signing of defender Victor Lindelof from Benfica.
