Alvaro Morata Could Be On The Move Again As Lazio Show Interest

Start

According to the latest Alvaro Morata transfer news, the forward could be on his way to Maurizio Sarri’s Lazio side. 

Morata is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Milan until January 2026. However, the 32-year-old Spaniard is reportedly unhappy in Turkey and the Super Lig club won’t fulfil their obligation to buy him.

That means Morata could head back to the San Siro sooner than expected as he tries to manufacture his next career move.

Alvaro Morata Transfer News

It’s understood that Alvaro Morata is already considering a move to Lazio. Morata admitted at the start of the year that moving to Milan in 2024 was a mistake.

Naturally, that didn’t go down too well with the Rossoneri faithful. His switch to Turkey was deemed the best outcome at the time but now it seems the loan transfer was quite literally a temporary solution.

The Biancocelesti will be gunning for the European spots in Serie A in 2025-26. Returning head coach Maurizio Sarri is aiming to enhance his attacking options and sees Morata as a prime candidate to fire the White and Blues to glory.

Last week, Pedro signed a one year extension deal with Lazio. The 37-year-old scored ten league goals last season and knows Morata well from their time in the Spanish national side.

How Much Is Alvaro Morata Worth?

At the time of publication, Alvaro Morata is worth €13million on TransferMarkt. That is the reported fee that Milan paid for Morata’s services in the summer of 2024.

Aged 32, Morata still has plenty to offer in the soccer world but it’s highly unlikely his valuation will rise. That won’t be a concern from Lazio’s perspective as they know they could potentially be getting a reliable goalscorer.

All that really matters now is how much the Rossoneri wants for Morata. His time at the San Siro is essentially done so recouping what they paid Atletico Madrid will surely suffice.

Alvaro Morata 2024-25 Stats

The Alvaro Morata 2024-25 stats perfectly demonstrate why Lazio is interested in signing the forward. During the first half of the campaign at Milan, Morata chipped in with five goals in 16 Serie A appearances.

He also played seven times for the Rossoneri in the Champions League. Morata only netted once but it came against former club Real Madrid in a 3-1 win at the Bernabeu.

After transferring to Galatasaray on loan, Morata scored six times in 12 Super Lig appearances. The Spaniard also scored in the Turkish Cup which he went on to win with the Aslan. Morata also won the Turkish League as well as the Supercoppa Italiana last season.

How Many Clubs Has Alvaro Morata Played For?

The best offshore sportsbooks are certain that Alvaro Morata will be joining a new team this summer. But how many clubs has Morata played for in his pro soccer career?

Although he has a reputation for transferring from teams on a regular basis, Morata has only played for six different clubs. However, he has enjoyed two separate spells with Juventus, Atletico and Real Madrid.

Morata also served English giants Chelsea as well as current employers Milan and Galatasaray. Throughout his club career, Morata has represented the Old Lady the most.

During his time in Turin, Morata played a total of 185 games in all competitions. The 32-year-old scored 59 goals and chipped in with 39 assists.
