Atletico Madrid fans chant against move for Alvaro Morata

Atletico Madrid chanted against their club's bid for Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata – during their 2-0 win over Getafe on Saturday.

Diego Simeone's side are widely reported to be on the verge of securing a deal for the former Real Madrid forward, however sections of the home support at the Wanda Metropolitano voiced the displeasure at the move.

During the second half they chanted 'Menos Morata y mas Borja Garces – Less Morata, more Borja Garces' in reference to highly rated academy product Garces.

The 19 year-old, labelled as the new Fernando Torres, scored on his first team debut, an 1-1 draw against Eibar back in September 2018, however he has not featured for the first team since. 

A move for Morata would push him further down the pecking order, a move apparently not favoured by Atletico supporters.
