Alvaro Morata: “I chose Chelsea over Manchester United”

Ahead of Sunday’s crunch clash between Chelsea and Manchester United, Alvaro Morata has claimed he rejected a move to the Red Devils in favour of Stamford Bridge.

The 25 year-old striker was strongly linked to United before joining Antonio Conte’s team, but told the Independent that he was only interested in joining the Blues.

“Conte, Emenalo, Marina Granovskaia, all of them called me this summer and there was no chance I wasn’t coming to Chelsea,” he said. “They demonstrated to me that they really wanted me.”

“I had the chance to go to Manchester United and other teams in the Premier League.

“The important thing is I’m part of Chelsea and I’m very happy with this and now it’s time to fight for the blue shirt. I want to play well and win with this shirt.”

Morata has settled in well to life in the Premier League, scoring 7 goals in 11 games across all competitions since making his ÂŁ58million summer move from Real Madrid.

United on the other hand opted for Romelu Lukaku to reinforce their frontline. The Belgian was brought to England by Chelsea back in 2011, but could never break into their first team.

Both players are expected to start in today’s huge match. Here you can find Chelsea’s predicted starting XI, and Manchester United’s predicted starting XI.
