What If The Unthinkable Happens At Chelsea? Who Is The Right Man To Spear Head The Team? A Swot Analysis

Alvaro Morata (Real Madrid)

Estimated Wages: £80,000

Contract Expiry: 2021

Another player who Conte has worked with in the past and who was heavily linked with a move to Chelsea in the summer, Morata rejoined Real Madrid after the La Liga giants opted to make use of a buy-back clause in their agreement with Juventus.

Since his return to the Santiago Bernabeu, the 24-year old has just started six games in La Liga but despite the lack of regular playing time, has scored five times and also has set up two more for his teammates.

Having featured so sparingly this term, his numbers aren’t exactly reliable, but Morata averages 2.3 shots per game, wins 0.9 aerial duels and completes 75.6% of his 12.3 attempted passes. The Spaniard at 6ft 2in is no slouch physically and can lead the line by himself and is definitely too good of a player to be warming the benches.
