Chelsea Agree Morata's Fee


Chelsea have announced they have agreed a fee with Real Madrid for the transfer of Alvaro Morata.

The move is now subject to the 24-year-old agreeing personal terms and passing a medical, according to a statement released by Chelsea.

Sky sources understand the initial fee for Morata is £58m (€65.6m). If all add ons are realised, the total fee could rise to about £70m (€79.1m).

The Spain international will arrive in London on Thursday morning and is expected to sign a five-year contract once he passes his medical.

Alvaro Morata rounded off a wonderful counter-attacking move from Real Madrid to score the third and final goal against Real Sociedad.

Morata reacted to the move in an interview with Spanish outlet Marca on Wednesday night, saying: "I am very happy, God willing, tomorrow I will be at Chelsea, a club that has always wanted me.

"I'm not disappointed about anything, I've won four titles here [with Real Madrid], but now I only think of putting on the Chelsea shirt.


"I want to grow up, if I didn't I wouldn't have left. I'd like to thank Zidane and wish him luck for the upcoming season.

"Thanks to all the Madridistas who supported me. I will always wish Madrid the best."

Manchester United had been in talks to sign Morata prior to the signing of Chelsea target Romelu Lukaku, but they refused to pay Real's asking price.

After missing out on Lukaku, Chelsea focused on their other targets namely Morata, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Andrea Belotti and Manchester City's Sergio Aguero.

They made a decisive move for Morata on Wednesday after being told that Aguero and Borussia Dortmund's Aubameyang were not for sale.

Conte signed Morata when he was at Juventus

Ladies,Come In Here:Here Are 7 Ways You Can Get Your Man Without Flirting

If you see a cute guy, but aren’t comfortable strutting your stuff to get him to like you, there are other ways to get his attention. Your looks aren’t everything. Even though men are visual creatures, they understand that you have a personality attached to your face and body. Here are some ways to get his attention without showing skin (or while you’re showing skin): 1. LET HIM KNOW One of the best ways to get his attention is by giving him attention. You don’t have to shower him with compliments, but at least let him know that you exist. If you see him walk past you, acknowledge him.

By wearing perfume with a delicious scent, you could capture his attention. Plus, every time that he smells the scent in the future, he’ll automatically think of you.
