However, the new Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is now looking to sign a first choice forward as well.
Spaniard Diego Costa has apparently put in a transfer request and the Italian manager is looking to make other arrangements in case the club fail to hold on to the former Atletico Madrid striker.
Alvaro Morata is a target for several European clubs this summer and the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal are likely to provide tough competition to Chelsea for the Real Madrid player.
Reports from Spain (via Sportwitness) claim that Antonio Conte has already provided the player with some assurances that he will play a key role at Chelsea.
