Alvaro Morata's future is changing every day.
Morata announced his stay in Atletico Madrid on his personal SNS on the 2nd (Korea time). He said "I can't imagine what it would feel like to win in an Atletico uniform. I won't stop to know how I feel"He announced that he would stay at Atletico.
This was an agreement with the Atletico club. Atletico also shared Morata's declaration of staying on its official SNS. As such, it looked as if Morata would be wearing an Atletico jersey until at least the 2024-2025 season.
In fact, Morata had originally completed Saudi Arabia's transfer to Al-Cassidia before announcing his stay at Atletico. It was a matter of Morata flying to Saudi Arabia after Euro 2024, signing a contract and filming only the clothes official.
However, when Atletico failed to recruit Artem Dovvik, the top scorer in Spain's La Liga last season and Morata was needed, Morata also changed its position to remain for the club.
When Morata chose a dream, not money, Spain's Lelebo said 'The officials of the negotiations confirmed that the transfer took place early yesterday. Al-Cassidia is also unable to believe that the situation has changed after all the transfer work has been completed. Key officials in the negotiations still do not believe the facts. Morata notified the decision at about 1 p.m.' and could not hide his surprise.
However, Morata is now likely to go to AC Milan. Italian transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio said on the 4th that "AC Milan are looking for a new striker after Olivier Giroud's departure. Morata said it has a buyout clause of 13 million euros (about 19.4 billion won) and has now been targeted by AC Milan."
DiMargio argued that Morata's current declaration of staying could not prevent him from going to AC Milan. He added "Morata recently posted that he would stay at Atletico, which said he didn't want to go to Saudi Arabia. AC Milan wanted to recruit Morata in the past, and now it is a specific target.
If a striker like Morata can be brought in at a low price of 13 million euros, there is no reason why AC Milan won't move. Atletico's resistance is also meaningless because it is a buyout clause. After all, the choice is up to Morata.
Di Margio "Morata is obviously delighted by AC Milan's interest but wants to decide after Euro 2024 matches. Whether to leave Atletico depends on Morata's will," he added. Attention is focusing on whether Morata, who said his dream is to win Atletico, will reverse his position.
