Arsenal players backing move for Spain striker

 

Alexis Sanchez is among the Arsenal players keen on seeing the club pursue Alvaro Morata, reports the Daily Star on Sunday.

 

The Spain international has been strongly linked with a return to Real Madrid this summer, with the club willing to re-activate a buyback clause in his contract.

 

After a disappointing start to the season, Morata's form has improved of late as Juventus continue their pursuit of the Serie A title.

Madrid are keen on seeing the Spaniard return to the Bernabeu, but could face competition from Arsenal for his signature as the Gunners strive to bolster their attack when the transfer window open.

 

Morata played a key role for Juventus as they overcame AC Milan 2-1 at the San Siro on Saturday, with the 23-year-old providing the assist for Mario Mandzukic's equaliser.
