According to a report by Football Italia, Tottenham Hotspur have joined the race to sign the 23-year-old Spanish striker Alvaro Morata. The Spanish international could be leaving Juventus this summer as some of Europe’s top clubs are rumoured to be interested in the young striker. It is reported that major clubs such as Real Madrid, Liverpool, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, and Manchester United are in the race with Spurs.
Morata has evidently confirmed that he’d prefer to stay with Juventus this week, however, it isn’t up to him. It has been reported since he signed with the Serie A giants, Real Madrid would have the option to activate the 23-year-old’s buy-back clause in order to bring him back to the Bernabeu for a fee around €30m.
Morata has made a total of 28 league appearances for Juventus this season, scoring six goals and providing three assists. In addition, the 23-year-old appeared in eight Champions League matches, netting himself two goals in Juventus’ run.
Tottenham has been searching for a partner for Harry Kane for quite some time now. With Tottenham most likely heading to the Champions League next season, reinforcements would be much needed at the North London club.
