Álvaro Morata is set to join Serie A club Como, where he’ll work with coach Cesc Fabregas, after spending six months at Galatasaray.
Álvaro Morata is set to join Serie A club Como, where he’ll work with Cesc Fabregas, a former teammate at Chelsea.
Morata’s move to Como marks his seventh senior-level club, following a career marked by frequent team changes. He’ll join a squad that already features several Spanish players, including winger Jesús Rodriguez, who signed from Real Betis.
Morata’s journey to Como comes after a loan spell at Galatasaray, which was preceded by a short stint at AC Milan.
The Spanish striker reportedly regretted leaving Atlético Madrid for Milan and has faced mental health challenges, including depression and panic attacks, that nearly led him to quit the Spain national team. However, he rebounded by captaining Spain to victory at Euro 2024.
The deal is expected to see Morata join Como on a season-long loan. Fabregas, who has been instrumental in attracting talent to Como, believes Morata can be a key figure in leading the team through their debut Serie A campaign.
Morata’s career has been marked by frequent team changes, having played for Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea, and Atlético Madrid, among others.
Despite his struggles, Morata has shown resilience and determination, making him a valuable asset for any team. With Morata’s experience and Fabregas’ guidance, Como aims to make a strong impression in the upcoming season.
