Man Utd boss Mourinho rivals Conte for Real Madrid striker Morata

Published on: 17 April 2017

Manchester United have joined the battle for Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata.

Morata is expected to demand a transfer this summer and has spoken openly about joining Antonio Conte at Chelsea.

It was Conte who signed Morata for Juventus and the Italian tried to buy him for Chelsea last August.

However, Don Balon says United are also in the mix, where manager Jose Mourinho sees the Spain international as a replacement for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

And like Conte, Mourinho has a good relationship with Morata having given the striker his debut while Real coach.

Real president Florentino Perez is expected to accept Morata's demands and sell the player this summer.
