Atletico are preparing for the 2022-23 season. Their idea is to cash in on some of their players, Morata among them. Atletico have two options: sell him to Juve, where he is on loan, or transfer him to Barcelona, a team interested in his services.
Aware of Barca's interest, Atletico refuse to give Morata to Juventus. At the time, the 'Vecchia Signora' agreed that, if convinced, they would buy the Spaniard for 35 million euros.
This winter, Juventus paid a lot of money for Vlahovic. That is why, right now, Juventus are not considering paying 35 million euros for Morata. They believe his price is excessive.
According to 'Il Corriere dello Sport', Juventus will make a final offer to Atletico. It would offer the red and white entity 15 million euros fixed and another five more in variables of easy fulfilment. That is to say, the operation would mean around 20 million euros for Atletico Madrid.
But in the Madrid side refuse to let Morata leave for such a low figure, according to 'Mundo Deportivo'. Their idea is to let him leave, but not for 20 million because they understand that he is worth much more. The striker's contract with Atletico expires in 2023. If they do not manage to sell him this summer, the club risk losing him for free in a year's time.
