Chelsea have released a statement telling fans to stop singing their song for Alvaro Morata.
The Blues fans have apparently been chanting the following for the Spanish striker since he joined from Real Madrid in the summer:
"Morata ooh, he signed from Real Madrid, he hates the f***ing y**s, Morata ooh."

While there's no video we can find which has any Chelsea fans singing the song, it's obviously going to attract criticism for the word 'yid' - an offensive term sometimes attributed to Tottenham supporters by other fans.

Chelsea are aware of the song anyway and have released a statement condemning it.
They describe it as "not acceptable at all" and finish it off by saying Morata wants fans to stop singing it, per Dan Levene:
You would expect that, with this statement, it should put an end to the song being chanted around the Blues support.
