Real Madrid youngster close to sealing Serie A switch.Juventus are reportedly holding successful talks with Real Madrid over the possible transfer of young striker Alvaro Morata, according to Italian source Tuttosport.
The 21-year-old Spaniard has long been linked with a host of top clubs around Europe after struggling to break past the numerous big names on the books at the Bernabeu, and Juventus now seem to be winning the race for his signature after negotiating a fee with Real.
Although Arsenal had previously been quoted an asking price of around £20m for Morata, Juventus appear to have successfully lowered Madrid’s demands for the player, and may pay an initial £12m for him this summer with various bonuses and add-ons included in the deal.
Inter Milan had also been linked with the youngster, who scored nine goals in all competitions for Carlo Ancelotti’s side this season.
