Alvaro Morata to Arsenal: Gunners to DOUBLE the wages of Real Madrid ace who has also interested Man City and Chelsea

ARSENAL are prepared to double Alvaro Morata’s wages to secure the transfer of the Real Madrid ace this summer.

Striker Morata, 23, impressed for Juventus in the last two seasons but is now back with Real after the La Liga club decided to use their £25million buy-back clause.

The Gunners have been chasing the player all summer, and Spanish news outlet AS report that Arsene Wenger’s side will offer him £144,000-a-week, making him their third highest paid player behind Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez.

Morata scored 12 goals in all competitions for Serie A winners Juve last season, and also hit three for Spain at Euro 2016.

He is currently on holiday in Ibiza with stunning Wag Alice Campello after being given time off following his excursions at the European championships.

Manchester City and Chelsea are also interested in the player.

The Gunners signed a striker to their ranks yesterday, the Japanese frontman Takuma Asano.
