13:27 – The news about FC Barcelona is coming from heaven this week. The club is looking for a new scoring striker and has ended up with Alvaro Morata. The striker is currently rented by Juventus from Atlético Madrid, which means that a kind of triangle exchange must take place. Antoine Griezmann and Memphis Depay are also involved in this.
Atlético would like to permanently take over Griezmann from Barcelona, because he is also currently on loan. In the triangle swap, Memphis would act as a medium of exchange and make the switch to Juventus. Barcelona in turn brings in Alvaro Morata, while Griezmann then definitively returns to Atlético Madrid.
This news is reported by various sources. Goal, AS, Juventus-watcher Romeo Agresti and journalist from Sportitalia Daniel Lungo mention the spectacular plans of the three clubs. The question is, on the one hand, whether all players are open to a departure, and on the other hand, the clubs will still have to negotiate about any amounts involved, given the three players differ in value.
AS reports, on the other hand, that former Ajax player Arek Milik is also in the picture to possibly succeed Morata in the event of a departure. Juventus is not doing too well this season and is currently in fifth place in the league. Therefore, it is open to actively participate in the transfer circuit in the coming period.
