The player, a former Real Madrid player who currently plays for Juve on loan from Atlético de Madrid, welcomed the operation, but Barça have run into the economic cost of signing him, as Atlético de Madrid demanded charge for this exchange. The figure claimed by the mattresses would be close to 40 million, which is the price signed by Atletico if Juve had executed the purchase option. In addition, Juventus coach Massimilano Allegri was not interested in leaving Morata in the middle of the season.
Save the money
Finally, and given that Morata was not a first choice, but a plan B to strengthen this winter, Barça have ruled out joining. In addition, the club has already added a striker, Ferran Torres, and has recovered the injured Ansu Fati. In this way, this money is saved at the Camp Nou to make a higher level bet in the summer. President Joan Laporta’s dream is to be able to sign Norwegian Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund.
