The Spanish forward could land in the Barcelona team this week, according to the newspaper Ace. There would already be an agreement with Juventus to have him transferred this season and with Atlético de Madrid for the next and an unspecified purchase option.
Álvaro Morata could land at FC Barcelona after having trained in the lower categories of Real Madrid (2008-2013) and having been in the first team (2013-14 and 2016-17) in previous stages of his career. The striker born in the capital is on loan in the set bianconeri since the summer of 2020, who also has a purchase option (40M) that weeks ago it became known in the media that he was not going to execute.

As reported by the newspaper Ace, Juventus would have agreed to interrupt the loan for the remainder of the year and Atlético de Madrid would sign so that the player they owned was also at the Camp Nou in the 2022-23 season. The same media assures that in said agreement, close to being closed according to its sources, it would include an unspecified purchase option.
It should be noted that the economic situation of the Barça team is not characterized by being especially buoyant, despite having been able to incorporate Ferran Torres (55 + 10M) from Manchester City. In addition, there is the option of incorporating new chips in January such as those of Daniel Alves, the aforementioned, Pablo Páez “Gavi” and Nico González, it is also urgent to release those who occupy a position in the first team without having too much weight in it, as is the case of Samuel Umtiti, Philippe Coutinho or Luuk De Jong. Memphis Depay is even mentioned as transferable going into summer.
Xavi Hernández is going to have to continue working on his game idea, but from now on he already has the opportunity to start doing it with some pieces requested by himself. Joan Laporta and his management team have already welcomed the arrival of Ferran Torres and, it seems, may soon give him an anticipated gift of Kings.
