Little by little, Alvaro Morata has become a top target for Juventus to sign in the next transfer market.
The rumour only started as an idea, but it’s now common to see the Chelsea player being highlighted in the local papers. Today, Tuttosport talks about his ‘great comeback’.
This time, Morata’s transfer is related to the situation of the other attackers at Juventus. With Paolo Dybala getting offers from big clubs and Mario Mandzukic wondering if he’ll stay for the next season, the Spaniard becomes a serious option.
Tuttosport continues to claim that Morata would be happy to return to Turin, especially because of his disappointing season under Antonio Conte at Chelsea.
The newspaper claims Juventus’ intention is to sign Morata on a €15m loan move, with another €40m or €45m spent to sign him permanently at the end of the spell.
That would make a total of €55-60m.
The period of a loan has been put several times as two years, with the Turin media going for the Juan Cuadrado plan.
It’s also been repeatedly pointed out by Tuttosport that Chelsea paid €80m for the player and may not be keen to sell so quickly, but they’re certainly building in confidence with each story.
