Chelsea: Warnock criticises Morata amid transfer speculation
Chelsea star Morata could be shown the door this month having struggled ever since his move from Real Madrid in the summer of 2017.
The Spain international scored twice in the Blues’ 2-0 FA Cup win over Nottingham Forest at the weekend, but that was a rare highlight in an otherwise nightmare spell at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea need a striker, and badly. Maurizio Sarri appears untrusting of Olivier Giroud and Morata only seems up for certain games.
And The Sun say Silva is now wanted as Morata’s replacement.
Chelsea are hopeful the forward will approve a loan move to Sevilla. He previously played in La Liga for Real Madrid and impressed during his time there.

Silva would then return to Italy before competing a move to west London.
Whether he can succeed where Morata has failed, however, remains to be seen.
Silva endured a nightmare time at Milan last year, scoring just twice from 24 Serie A outings.
But it has been a different story in Spain with the Portugal international managing to find the net eight times in 16 appearances.
