A few days ago, according to the French "Le10Sport" report, Barcelona chasing Juve's Spanish striker Morata is about to get his hands on it, but now it has encountered a blockage, and Newcastle and Tottenham have also joined the competition, which has made Barca's plan have a lot of variables.
One of the main requirements of Barca boss Xavi for management in the winter window is to supplement the front, the team is now desperate for an arrow in the middle, Depay is injured, they can only use Bresvet and Luke De Jong, neither age nor ability, they are not the ideal candidate for Xavi, so Barca aimed at Juventus's Spanish striker Morata.
Barca considered Morata before the transfer window opened, but Juve were reluctant to let go at first. Morata was loaned by them to Atletico and if they abandon the remaining loan contracts, they will have to look for new strikers. However, as Juve get closer to Fiorentina's Vlahović, the resistance from Juve has become smaller, and the rest is for Atletico.
If Barca want to get Morata, Atletico, who owns Morata, can't get around it. Because Barca is under a lot of economic pressure now, they don't want to buy out immediately, which must be agreed by Atletico, and Atletico's attitude is to hope for the yard, and to offset the transfer fee owed by Griezmann's return and Morata's transfer fee, although the negotiation is difficult, it is still very likely. But just when Barca thought success was imminent, the competition between the two Premier League teams made Morata's destination full of variables.
The two teams to compete for Morata are Tottenham and Newcastle in the Premier League, and their managers Conte and Eddie Hovey see Morata as the key to improving the team's performance. Tottenham is just two points away from the Champions League zone, and Newcastle are only one point away from the relegation zone, so they are in desperate need of a striker to help the team get one step closer. The means of competition between the two teams and Barca is to promise to buy out in one go, which makes Barca extremely uncomfortable, after all, in today's situation, it is difficult for the team to match the offers of these two Premier League giants, Andyria are willing to see such competition appear, and now it depends on Morata's own wishes, whether he is willing to go to Barca or go to the Premier League.
