Ed quick query regarding Alvaro Morata. Firstly reports in the press indicate that he is a striker we're interested in for this summer. Are they correct?
Secondly would any deal, for any club, to sign him involve Real re-signing him and then selling him on at a profit? Is this a way of doing transfer business that you see becoming more common?
{Ed002's Note - Yes, there is interest. Morata remains of serious interest to Real Madrid who would like to re-sign the player (possibly for the purposes of resale or exchange) but Juventus are looking for a way to keep him unless a replacement is found - Berardi being one possibility and Batshuayi another. There is also interest in him from London and from Dortmund - who may be open to a deal involving Aubameyang if Real Madrid push their interest further. Morata would be open to staying in Turin but Juventus would need to discuss the buy back clause with Real Madrid and extend it.}
