Alvaro Morata's agent reveals a 'very important offer' from Manchester United

United have been heavily linked with the 24-year-old Spain international as they look to add attacking reinforcements to cover the loss of last season's top scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Morata's agent, Juanma Lopez, revealed that free-spending AC Milan have also shown an interest in the former Juventus hitman but says Madrid have rejected an "unsatisfactory" offer from the Italian giants.

Lopez told www.calciomercato.com of United: "It's a club with a lot charm, a very interesting option.

"I cannot tell (if an agreement is close), we'll see."

Regarding Milan's interest, Lopez added: "I can confirm there had been regular contact until a few days ago. Quite simply, Real Madrid considered the offer from the Rossoneri unsatisfactory."

United have been forced to turn their attentions away from Antoine Griezmann after Atletico Madrid were hit with a transfer ban for the summer window.

Griezmann has reportedly penned a new five-year deal with Atletico, and his commitment to the club means United are considering Morata, while Romelu Lukaku has also been linked with a move to Old Trafford.
