Morata would reject a move to Atletico at the time and would make the move to Chelsea for over \u00a371 million.<\/p>\n
However, after struggling in England, Chelsea decided to loan Morata to Atletico with a view to buy this January.<\/p>\n
The striker has an assist to his name in Spain so far, but has yet to net for his new side.<\/p>\n
