Juventus seal deal for Madrid's Morata
Juventus have finalised a €20 million deal to bring Spanish striker striker Alvaro Morata to the club from Real Madrid.
Morata has penned a five-year deal in Turin, while Real will have the right to re-sign the striker until the end of the 2016-17 season.
The Spain Under-21 international has struggled to constantly nail down a first-team place at the Santiago Bernabeu, although he contributed nine goals in all competitions last term.
Ultimately, a stellar forward line of Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema made it difficult for Morata to start games regularly.
However, he will fancy his chances of competing for a spot in Massimiliano Allegri's attacking ranks, alongside the likes of Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente.
Morata arrives at the Juventus Stadium for what is the start of a new era for the Italian champions - who parted company with former coach Antonio Conte on Tuesday.
Allegri, appointed as his replacement a day later, will be tasked with building on the three consecutive Scudetti won in Conte's era with Morata his first signing.
Despite struggling for appearances at Real, he picked up a host of honours including the Liga title and two Copa del Rey medals.
