Spain international Alvaro Morata is reportedly on the cusp of leaving Real Madrid with Manchester United hot on the trail of his signature.

The 24-year-old faced a frustrating spell on his Los Blancos comeback last term as he played second fiddle to Karim Benzema for most of the campaign. Morata was initially tipped to leave the European champions following their decision to activate the buy-back clause while at Juventus, but the player opted to fight for his place in Madrid instead.
