Morata becomes the 'transfer king' of Spanish football

Alvaro Morata has just set another special record in his tumultuous career: he has moved through a total of 9 deals, with a total amount of up to 223 million euros.

Alvaro Morata returns to Italy to play.

This figure makes the striker born in 1992 the most expensive Spanish player in the history of transfer deals, far surpassing the second place Marc Cucurella (101 million euros). On the world level, Morata is only behind five superstars: Joao Felix (225.7 million), Dembele (233 million), Cristiano Ronaldo (247 million), Romelu Lukaku (369 million) and Neymar (400 million).

Morata’s latest destination in his “adventure” journey is Como, the seventh club of his career. After a short time playing for Galatasaray on loan from AC Milan, the 33-year-old striker will continue playing in Serie A. The agreement between Milan and Como includes a loan fee of €1 million until June 2026 and a mandatory buyout clause of €9 million, keeping Morata signed until 2029.

Looking back, Morata has had some high-profile moves: from Real Madrid to Juventus in 2014 for €20 million, then back to the Bernabéu after two years for €30 million. The highlight was a €66 million move to Chelsea in 2017. This was followed by a series of loan and purchase deals with Atlético Madrid, Juventus, Milan and Galatasaray, before landing at Como.

It is worth noting that although he was never considered a top “killer” in Europe, Morata was still constantly sought after and brought huge transfer fees to clubs. At the age of 33, he has collected an impressive record: winning the championship and national cup in Türkiye with Galatasaray, contributing 7 goals and 3 assists in just 16 matches.

With the contract with Como, Morata not only continues to affirm his attraction in the transfer market but also opens a new chapter in his career. In Serie A, where he was successful with Juventus, Morata aims to continue to make his mark, proving that his career is not only limited to record transfer figures.
