Alvaro Morata describes Chelsea as "the best club" ahead of his likely transfer to Stamford Bridge from Real Madrid.

Alvaro Morata has said that he will be moving to "the best club" and playing for one of "best coaches" if he completes a move to Chelsea.

On Wednesday night, the Premier League champions revealed that they had agreed a deal with Real Madrid to sign the forward, who will now undergo a medical.

If everything goes to plan, Morata will be confirmed as a Chelsea player in the coming days and he has admitted that he is excited about the prospect of working with head coach Antonio Conte.

The 24-year-old told Sky Sports News: "This is the best club. Antonio Conte is one of the best coaches in the world and I'm so happy to work with Antonio.

"[It's] One of the best leagues in the world and I'm so happy to be here. I spoke with Azpilicueta and he told me everything is OK and he found it something easy."

Last season, Morata scored 20 goals for Real in all competitions, despite only being used as backup by boss Zinedine Zidane.
