A new obstacle appeared in Barcelona’s path to contracting Juventus striker Alvaro Morata, according to what was revealed by the Spanish newspaper AS on Wednesday evening.
Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez asked the club’s management to sign Alvaro Morata to support the attacking line in the second part of the season, especially after Sergio Aguero’s retirement, and the possibility of losing Osman Dembele.
Juventus was the one standing in the way of Barcelona during the last period, but the Italian club decided to allow Avaro Morata to leave in the middle of the season, and this is due to the approach of the old lady’s club to contract with the brilliant Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic.
Atletico Madrid does not want Morata to go to Barcelona
The newspaper pointed out in its report that the problem now is with Atletico Madrid, who owns the player’s card. He does not prefer the Spanish striker to go to play for Barcelona, as he is one of his direct competitors in La Liga.
Morata plays for Juventus on loan until the end of the season, and has the option to buy the final in the summer for 30 million euros. Although the club will sign Vlahovic, coach Massimiliano Allegri does not mind Morata staying with the team until the end of the current season.
The report added that Barcelona will look for other goals to consolidate the spearhead position during the remaining few days in the winter transfer market.
