Alvaro Morata Scheduled to Complete Atletico Madrid Medical on Sunday as Chelsea Hell Nears End

Alvaro Morata will undergo a medical with Atletico Madrid on Sunday ahead of finalising his long awaited loan move from Chelsea.

The 26-year-old has been heading towards the Stamford Bridge exit door for a number of weeks now after falling out-of-favour with Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri.

He now appears to be one step closer to returning to his native Spain - with Sky Sports confirming that he has arrived back in the Spanish capital to complete a medical with Atletico.

He is expected to join Diego Simeone's side on loan until the end of the season, and it's thought that the deal will include an option for Los Rojiblancos to buy him permanently, should his spell prove to be a success.
