Juventus will attempt to re-sign former striker Alvaro Morata from Chelsea on an initial season-long loan, according to a report.

The 25-year-old has faded following a positive start to his first campaign in English football, netting just three times in 20 appearances since Boxing Day.

Italian outlet Tuttosport suggests that Juve are working hard to bring the Spain international back to the Allianz Stadium, where he spent two seasons between 2014 and 2016.

Morata notched 27 goals when primarily being used as a back-up option, before returning to Real Madrid for a season last time out and playing a part in Los Blancos' famous European and league double.

As part of the loan arrangement, the report also claims that Juventus will have the option to buy the striker permanently in 2019.
