Alvaro Morata to Manchester United: Juventus striker will reject Red Devils if Jose Mourinho signs Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Juventus star Alvaro Morata has been linked with a move to Manchester United and the striker has revealed his condition to join the Red Devils. The 23-year-old's impressive display for the Old Lady last season has seen him attract interest from a host of Premier League clubs.

Apart from the Red Devils, their league rivals Arsenal and Chelsea are also interested in securing his services. United are also interested in signing Sweden international Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is a free agent in the summer after his contract at Paris Saint-Germain will expire at the end of June.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport (via the Independent), Morata will only join the 20-time English champions if Jose Mourinho decides against bringing Ibrahimovic to Old Trafford. The 34-year-old former Barcelona striker played under the Portuguese tactician at Inter Milan and is keen on reuniting with him at United.

Ibrahimovic is expected to sign a one-year deal with the English giants. His deal was expected to go through before the start of the Euro 2016, but Sweden coach Erik Hamren confirmed the striker will not be allowed to leave the national camp until the completion of the European championship.

Morata will only join United if he is given assurances that he will be the first choice striker at Old Trafford. Should they conclude a deal for Ibrahimovic, it is likely that he will be the man leading the Red Devils' attack for the next season.

In addition to this, Mourinho has promised the United hierarchy that Marcus Rashford will be given an opportunity to develop after his promising rise under Louis van Gaal in the second half of the last season.

The Juventus striker joined the Turin club in 2014 from Real Madrid and his former club has inserted a buy-back clause. The 10-time European champions are aware of the growing interest from England for Morata. Real are looking at the option of bringing him back to the Spanish capital club in order to sell him in the same transfer window to make a hefty profit.
