People say he will leave on a loan?

Not from what i've heard. He's supposed to be the back-up striker after Benzema. Higuaín is set to go. Rare oppurtunity, hope he grabs it.

This guy...

All it takes is a goal or two and he will get rid of his mental block. Same case with Jese I believe. I so want them to succeed. Every other match they show how much quality they bring to that forward formation.

Morata is an exciting player and has huge potential. Nice to see him getting opportunities at Madrid.

Can't wait to see him rip it up at Getafe.

6 goals in 290 minutes. Goal every 48 minutes (which with less seriousness is statistically better than Messi or Ronaldo, lol). And he can't even get a fucking start.

Agreed personal terms with Juve , remain to be seen if Juve can agree to our terms... it will come down the option to buyback... big clubs will never accept that clause

 

[DonAK]

I don't think Juve should accept to a buyback unless it's high at 40m or something, but a first refusal sounds fine. If Morata in the future want to come back and you want him as well then you'll get him, he will force a move to return to his dream club.

 

[El Gato]

Whether he stays or goes, the next few years are still the same test for him - is he going to make it in football? He got the planefield with Madrid and he failed so far. He needs another chance elsewhere.

 

[AnfieldEd]

Why do Real want to get rid of him? Surely as a back up striker to the main man in either Benzema or someone else he'd be a very good option? Strange decision for me - even if there is a buy back clause.

 

[Beast]

Ed you need to watch the subject in question before debating it ...
He doesn't have the mental strength to play for Real Madrid at this stage of his career ... he is better in an environment with less pressure like he does with the Youth Spanish team , Castilla etc

Don , the buyout usually a million or two above the payment the club receive.. however a big club like Juve would never investment & give time to a player just to see him go back after he prove himself...
he is better off in a midtable team , for us & him

 

[AnfieldEd]

How is he ever going to get that mental strength by going to mid table clubs and staying in his comfort zone? He'll just become another Bojan in that case. If the mental strength is the biggest flaw and not his ability then I'd say it's worth keeping him to try and improve that part of his game. Let him sink or swim and if he sinks then sell him.

 

[Beast]

He had several chances to prove his worth , he simply don't have that strong character, of course this affects his performance... we can't keep him he is still in demand and we need a reliable backup like we have with Jese , why didn't you keep Sahin than ? Same mentality
Morata, Arbeloa , Illarramendi ,Marcelo will probably be sold
Casemiro loaned

All the rest staying , we usually don't make big changes after winning the CL

 

[Semi-Neutral]

Marcelo? What, why? And Illarramendi straight up sold?
