Chelsea have been linked with a summer transfer move for Barcelona striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Chelsea are expected to seal this deal before transfer deadline day, but the Blues are believed to be making alternative plans just in case a deal for Aubameyang doesn’t go through.

According to media outlet Diario Sport, Chelsea could make a swoop for Alvalro Morata if the club’s attempt to sign Aubameyang eventually fails.

Morata was signed as a £60m replacement for Diego Costa in 2017, but he wasn’t able to succeed at Stamford Bridge, and has since shuffled between Atletico Madrid and Juventus.

Morata scored 24 goals in 72 games for the Blues but was mostly characterised by his ‘big misses’.

The 29-year-old has started the season in fine form for Atletico Madrid, and scored a brace in their opening Liga fixture against Getafe.

Do you think this would be a good signing for Chelsea?
