Chelsea's Alvaro Morata Would Be 'Very Welcome' at Barcelona, Says Jordi Alba

Barcelona full-back Jordi Alba has said Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata would be welcome at the Camp Nou if he decides to quit Stamford Bridge in January.

Per Dejan Kalinic of Goal, the Spaniard has been linked with a switch to Barca or AC Milan in the new year despite his relative struggles with the Blues, and fellow Spaniard Alba has talked up his potential move to the Catalan giants:

"Morata is a player that I appreciate a lot. He has been a top player for many years. At the end, it's the club's [decision] if they want to sign him or not, as with any other player.
