Alvaro Morata is reportedly only interested in leaving Real Madrid for Manchester United and is holding out for the Red Devils to make an offer.

United are said to have shown a strong interest in the Spain international after seeing him net 20 goals for Los Blancos last term as a bit-part player.

Real president Florentino Perez revealed on Tuesday that, despite reports of a £60m deal being struck, Morata had not yet been made the subject of a bid this summer.

The 24-year-old is still intent on making a switch to Old Trafford, according to Spanish publication Marca, and will remain patient as talks supposedly continue behind the scenes.

United are also rumoured to be keeping tabs on Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski and Andrea Belotti of Torino, however, with Jose Mourinho eager to bolster his attack following the release of Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
