The former Real Madrid striker takes the number previously worn by the likes of Radamel Falcao and Fernando Torres at Stamford Bridge
The Blues completed a £70 million deal for the Real Madrid striker on July 21, with the Spaniard signing a five-year contract.
And the west London club have revealed that Morata will take the No.9, a squad number that had been vacant over the 2016-17 campaign.
The last player to have worn that particular number on their back is Radamel Falcao during what was a disappointing loan spell during the 2015-2016 season.
Fernando Torres has also had the number in years gone by, with Morata having had the No.9 during a previous loan spell with Juventus.
