Borussia Dortmund allegedly plot a summer bid for out-of-favour Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata.

Borussia Dortmund have allegedly added wantaway Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata to their list of summer transfer targets.

According to Bild, the German giants are keen on the Spaniard but his asking price could slam the breaks on a potential deal.

Chelsea are said to be keen to recoup most of the £60m they paid Real Madrid for Morata's services last season, while Dortmund are seeking a cut-price agreement.

Morata's future at Stamford Bridge is uncertain following a difficult first campaign in England, during which the forward netted six goals in his first six games, but only five in the 25 that followed.

Meanwhile, the report suggests that Dortmund have cooled their interest in the striker's Chelsea teammate Michy Batshuayi, who spent the latter half of last season on loan with them.
