Galatasary have sorted the issue of signing another striker with a deal with AC Milan on an initial loan for Spanish striker Alvaro Morata, but with an obligation to sign him on a permanent basis in the summer, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
The Euros winner will complete his move later today after a routine medical, with all parties involved in the deal agreeing to key areas which includes his wages and also terms of the club to club agreement.
His signing is coming on the back of Galatasary’s failure to land Nigeria international striker Victor Osimhen on a permanent deal from Napoli. Their bid of €65m to convert is loan to a permanent deal was rejected few days ago.
Napoli insist on making a decision on the sale of Osimhen in the summer rather than accept the break clause in his loan contract. His transfer fee will be €75m effectively ruling the Turkish side out of the running for his permanent signing.

It’s largely why Morata was signed as it will mean there will be no vacuum when Osimhen departs in the summer as expected after the expiration of his loan deal in June. So far he has scored 17 goals in 21 games in all competitions.
