    How Juventus tried to persuade Morata to reject Real Madrid return

    How Juventus tried to persuade Morata to reject Real Madrid return

    It comes as no secret that Juventus tried to persuade Alvaro Morata to stay at the club last summer rather than joining Real Madrid. The Merengues activated a buy-back in the previous transfer window to bring the product of their academy back at the club for € 30 million after that he had impressed in his two-year spell with Juventus winning five domestic titles and qualifying for the 2015 Champions League final.

    Our transfer pundit Fabrizio Romano has exclusively learned that Juventus did everything they could to convince the Spanish striker offering to double Morata’s salary.

    The Spanish striker was offered a new € 5 million-a-yearcontract which is more than what Paul Pogba was getting at the club as a the Frenchman was on a € 4.5 million-a-year deal.

    Despite Juventus’ approach, however, Morata decided to reject the offer and rejoin Real Madrid, his childhood club and a return of the Spanish striker to Juventus (maybe in exchange for Paulo Dybala) is not even to be taken into account.
