Alvaro Morata has not featured much for Chelsea in recent months
He has made47 Premier League appearances for the Blues, scoring 16 times, but has not started a top-flight game since January.Now – following the signing ofGonzalo Higuain– Maurizio Sarri has sanctioned his exit from the London club.Morata will remain at Atletico until the end of the 2019/20 season, with the club also having the option to make the deal permanent.“I’m very happy and proud to be here. I can’t wait to start training, meet my new teammates and play,” he told Atletico’s official website.Morata was on the books of Atletico as a youngster before being snapped up by their bitter rivals Real Madrid, with whom he made his professional debut.He represented Real Madrid across two separate spells – either side of a two-year stay with Juventus – and won two La Liga titles and two Champions Leagues with Los Blancos.Chelsea made him their record signing in 2017 with a 60m swoop, but he never looked settled at the club.His exit was effectively sealed last week when manager Sarri questioned where the player’s loyalties lay.Sarri said: “Morata is potentially a very good player. He has the characteristics for playing in my team, but one month ago he said he wanted to play for another team.“It was very difficult for him to give us 100 per cent because of his mental situation. “
