Milan are on the verge of securing Alvaro Morata’s signature, with Wednesday marked as the decisive day for the transfer. The club’s top management is preparing to travel to Madrid to complete the deal for the Spanish striker.
Calciomercato detail how the Rossoneri have been working diligently behind the scenes to bring Morata to San Siro. The club is set to offer the European champion a four-year contract with an option for a fifth year, worth approximately 5 million euros per season plus bonuses. This significant investment demonstrates Milan’s commitment to acquiring a player of Morata’s caliber, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic playing a key role in convincing the striker to join.
On Wednesday, Milan’s CEO Giorgio Furlani, sporting director Geoffrey Moncada, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic will fly to Madrid to finalize the operation. The deal has been facilitated by FIFA agent Beppe Bozzo. Contrary to earlier reports, there will be no negotiations with Atletico Madrid. The Spanish club has been courteously informed that Milan intends to trigger Morata’s release clause, set at 13 million euros.
Once the payment is processed, Morata will undergo medical examinations in Madrid under the supervision of Milan’s management. Following the completion of these formalities, the striker will depart for a well-deserved vacation with his family. He is expected to arrive in Milan in the second week of August, ready to begin his third Italian adventure, this time donning the red and black of AC Milan rather than the black and white of Juventus.
Morata’s arrival in Italy is scheduled for early August, coinciding with the team’s return from their United States tour. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, his debut in the Milan shirt at San Siro is anticipated to take place during the Berlusconi Trophy match against Monza on Wednesday, August 13th.
