Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata has revealed that Chelsea failed in their summer move that would have made him the most expensive Spanish player of all time. The 23-year-old was re-signed by Madrid from Juventus this summer after the Spanish club activated his £24 million buyback clause.
But Chelsea remained keen on Morata and, according to Sport Bild, were ready to pay £60 million in order to bring him to Stamford Bridge.
‘Chelsea showed the most interest,’ the striker told Sport Bild.
‘Antonio Conte had already signed me for Juventus.
‘And it was a very good offer this time. I would have been the most expensive Spanish player ever.’
