World Best player has this message for Chelsea fans about Superstar

FIFA The Best recipient Cristiano Ronaldo has told Metro that the loss of Spain striker Alvaro Morata to Premier League Champions Chelsea has weakened Spanish La Liga Champions Real Madrid.

Alvaro Morata decided to leave Santiago Bernabeu in the summer window as Chelsea manager Antonio Conte moved fast to strengthen his attacking options at the Bridge.

The 25-year-old striker joined Chelsea back in July and is viewed as the like-for-like replacement for Brazil-born Spaniard Diego Costa at the London side.

The former Real Madrid star has been making a gradual start to life in the club, with the forward having scored six goals in the English Premier League so far this campaign.

And Portugal Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo says that the loss of the Spaniard in the summer window has hampered European Champions Real Madrid, who were defeated 3-1 by Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.

Alvaro Morata will be hoping to play for the Blues when they return to English Premier League duty on Sunday with a crucial tie against rivals Manchester United at the Bridge.

Chelsea go into that match looking to return to winning ways after the humiliating 3-0 defeat to AS Roma in the UEFA Champions League in the midweek.
