Madrid confirm Morata return

 

Real Madrid have announced they have re-signed Juventus striker Alvaro Morata.

 

Morata, 23, left Madrid for Juventus for £15.8m in 2014 but was heavily linked with a return throughout last season.

 

Zinedine Zidane’s side have exercised the £23m buyback clause that was inserted into the deal that took the Spain international to Italy two years ago and they are now expected to sell the striker on for £30.7m.
