According to a report from AS (h/t Daily Mail), Atletico Madrid have to pay £15.5million to keep Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata.
The Spaniard moved to La Liga on a season-long loan from Stamford Bridge.
Unlike his previous seasons with the Blues, the Spaniard finally sussed out his worrying form as he contributed a lot to help Diego Simeone’s side finish second in the table.
The 26-year-old has notched up a 7-goal haul in just 14 appearances that include some stunners in the process.
Now, it is revealed that Atletico have to splurge £15.5million to make Morata’s stay permanent.
Gonzalo Higuain was recruited by Maurizio Sarri to fill the striker’s void on a temporary basis.
The Argentine striker alongside Olivier Giroud didn’t make good use of the opportunities as he really showed clear signs of rustiness.
Furthermore, Higuain is set to make a return to his parent club AC Milan this summer and the Blues are yet to decide on his future.
The Londoners dealt with a major blow as they are disallowed to make transfers in the next two transfer windows.
Having ensured their qualification for the Champions League next season, the Blues face Arsenal in the Europa League final at Baku.
