Chelsea's preferred replacement for Alvaro Morata's revealed

Premier League giants Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Lazio striker Ciro Immobile in January.
The 28-year-old has been superb for his Serie A side - scoring six goals in nine appearances so far this term.
He also has a goal in two Europa League matches so far and his superb form has attracted attention from the Stamford Brige chiefs.

Having failed to land Inter Milan forward Mauro Icardi, Maurizio Sarri and his recruitment team are looking towards the Lazio man.

SunSport report that RB Leipzig's Timo Werner and Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski are other stars on the watch list of the current FA Cup champions.
Betfair Spokesperson Katie Baylis said: " With Chelsea target Icardi insisting he won't be leaving Inter Milan, attention is now turning to which other strikers the club will look to target .

"At this stage we have Lazio's Immobile as the 4/1 favourite, followed by Werner with the German at 9/1 and Bayern Munich striker Lewandowski at 16/1. "
Chelsea paid a record £60million to bring Morata in last summer and he showed star quality, netting six in his opening six games for the Blues.

But his form at the Bridge has faded and he now finds himself playing second fiddle to Olivier Giroud.
