The Spaniard is of interest to Los Hispalenses, but Joaquin Caparros is worried the Blues will be tough to negotiate with
Sevilla director of football Joaquin Caparros believes Alvaro Morata wants to join the La Liga club, but admits a deal with Chelsea would prove "very, very complicated".
The Spain international has scored just 16 Premier League goals since moving to Chelsea in July 2017 in a reported £60 million ($76m) deal and he has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge this month.
Caparros is said to have met with Morata's agent as Sevilla position themselves to make a loan bid, but a transfer is unlikely to be straightforward and the Spanish side are not optimistic.
"It is true that we have an interest in this player [Morata], but it is a very, very complicated operation," Caparros told the club's official television channel.
"The player may want to come here over other options, but it is very complicated. Chelsea are a club who are very difficult to negotiate [with]."
Goal understand talks between the Spanish title contenders and the former Real Madrid forward's representatives have taken place, with Sevilla open to paying his £140,000-a-week wages to sign him on loan from Chelsea for the rest of the campaign.
