Liverpool, Arsenal and Real Madrid are getting set for a £21million battle to sign Spanish star Alvaro Morata. However any potential signing could become quite complicated, and is dependant on a cheeky clause written into the Spaniards contract.
Real Madrid sold the 22-year-old for £14.5million to Juventus in the summer, but the legendary Spanish club could buy him back before 2017, for anything up to £21million.
Morata’s eight months at Juve has been deemed a success, and he has frequently replaced recognised frontman, Fernando Llorente up front, scoring 9 goals in 29 appearances with a further five assists to his name.
Spanish boss, Vicente del Bosque is fully aware of the Spaniard’s raw talent and has already involved him a couple of times with the national team, having seen him already play at every level from Under 17’s.
Liverpool and Arsenal are said to be extremely interested in the 6’3″ striker, but Real boss, Carlo Ancelotti could well stand in their way. One positive in their favour will be the knowledge that Madrid already have a wealth of striking talent and may see Morata as an unecessary purchase.
