Alvaro Morata left La Liga last summer when he exchanged Atletico Madrid for AC Milan, but he could be set for a return 12 months later. The captain of Spain has struggled in Italy, and also during a loan spell in Galatasaray, so a move back home can help him bring his best shape back – which is needed for the World Cup 2026.
Earlier this year, Morata admitted that he regretted his decision to leave Athleti last summer. And although he may not have the opportunity to return to the Riyadhair Metropolitano in 2025, he could come back to La Liga in one of the two sweaters.
As reported by Sky Sports (via Marca), Morata is sought by both Seville and Getafe, where both clubs have already submitted contract offers to the 32-year-old.
Sevilla is looking for a new striker because of the overwhelming achievements of Isaac Romero, while January those Akor Adams signed, perhaps not familiar after managing only four performances during the second half of last season. Getafe also needs a new number nine, because it increasingly looks like ex-real Madrid Man Borja Mayoral will leave.
Morata would fit well with both clubs, but it might be more likely that he ends up at Getafe. In 2023, it was revealed that the veteran is planning to retire in the Coliseum, after he has given his word to President Angel Torres – this is because Morata has an affinity with the club after he arrived in the books as a youth player in Getafe in 2008 to sign him in 2008.
It will be interesting to see if Morata is moving this summer, but if so, he would certainly be welcomed with open arms in La Liga.
