Álvaro Morata will move permanently from Atlético Madrid to Juventus Turin in the summer of 2021 – Juanma López, the Spanish striker’s advisor, is convinced. “At the end of the season, Juve will buy it from Atlético, I’m sure,” said López in an interview with the transfer expert’s editorial team Gianluca Di Marzio. Morata moved from Madrid to Turin at the end of September for a one-season rental fee of 10 million euros and hit the mark.
After a mixed season for Atlético with 20 goals in 44 games, the 28-year-old has already collected 14 scorer points in 14 games at his old place of work. In the summer, Juventus has two options: Activate the officially confirmed purchase option of 45 million euros or extend the loan for another season for 10 million euros.
With a permanent move, Morata would climb to third among the players with the highest transfer revenues in football history. Currently, 179 million euros were paid in redemption for Real Madrid’s own generation – only Romelu Lukaku (27), team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo (35) and Neymar (28) stand in front of him.

To overview Agent López said: “I don’t think there is any regret that Atlético got Luis Suárez – one of the best strikers there is. Everyone is happy with the outcome. ”Suárez’s move from FC Barcelona made the Morata loan possible because Atlético previously insisted on a permanent transfer. According to López, before Juventus won the contract, it was also Milan and Napoli who had Morata’s turn, who had been chasing goals for the Bianconeri from 2014 to 2016.
