Spain captain Alvaro Morata admitted that there is a possibility he could leave Atletico Madrid after the conclusion of EURO 2024, but warned that ‘nothing is certain in football.’
The former Juventus striker is linked with a potential move to San Siro this summer to join Paulo Fonseca’s Milan, who currently have a shortage of senior centre-forwards at their disposal following Olivier Giroud’s departure at the end of the 2023-24 campaign.
It is understood that Morata is available due to a release clause in his Atletico Madrid contract, which is believed to stand at a sum of €13m.
Milan advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been crucial in establishing contact with the Spaniard and has been cited as the man who recommended Morata to the club as a potential signing.
However, despite Ibrahimovic’s efforts, Milan are still waiting to hear back with a definitive answer, and that situation is unlikely to change before the end of EURO 2024.
“I am fully focussed on the next match of the European Championship, I want to stay calm, but nothing is certain in football,” Morata said in a recent interview with Spanish outlet ElDesmarque Cuatro.
“For now I want to continue the journey with Spain in the best possible way, I want to keep on enjoying myself.
When asked if he could potentially move on from Atletico Madrid this summer after the conclusion of the EUROs, he said: “It’s possible, but making a decision like that is not easy.”
