Morata wants Juventus return
Atletico Madrid striker, Alvaro Morata is reportedly considering a return to Italy to joining reigning Serie A champions, Juventus.
Morata spent two years with the Old Lady from 2014 to 2016 before returning to Real Madrid after the Spanish giants activated a buy back clause in his contract.
Juventus have been in the market for a striker following constant reports that Gonzalo Higuain will be shown the exit at the club, leaving them with Cristiano Ronaldo and Paulo Dybala as their attacking options.
Roma’s Bosnian striker, Edin Dzeko and Barcelona’s Luis Suarez have both been linked with a move to Turin while Everton’s Italian young striker, Moise Kean is also rumored to be up for a shock return but it seems that Alvaro Morata has joined the list of possiblee attacking targets for Juventus.
Diario AS reports that the 27-year old is a target for the Italian champions and he is seriously considering the option. Morata has reportedly been frustrated at his lack of playing time towards the end of last season, with Diego Costa picked ahead of him on several occasions.
Italian outlet, Corriere Dello Sport adds further fuel to the reports by claiming that the striker has spoken with Atleti manager, Diego Simeone and has asked to leave the club.
It is unclear if the Spanish club are willing to enter into any negotiations for the striker who they bought for around 60 million Euros just last summer. In any case, Juventus could trigger his 150 million Euros release clause if they really want to get their man.
