It is been a difficult start to 2018 for Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata. The Spaniard has netted just once since the turn of the year, after a barren run of 13 games without a goal.
The 25-year-old may have felt disheartened when he heard the news that he had not been selected for the latest Spanish international squad to play friendlies against Germany and Argentina. To top it off Diego Costa, the man Morata replaced at Chelsea, was selected for the 24-man squad and has scored six times since his return to Atletico Madrid in January.
