Spain striker Alvaro Morata has joined Galatasaray from AC Milan on loan with an option to make the deal permanent, both teams said late on Sunday.
Galatasaray will pay six million euros to Serie A giants Milan to keep Morata on loan until Jan. 20, 2026.
The Turkish side added that the transfer can be made permanent for a fee of eight million euros. Morata will be paid six million euros per season if the purchase option is activated.
The much-travelled Morata — a former Chelsea, Juventus, Real Madrid and Atletico player — scored six goals and delivered two assists in 25 matches across all competitions this season.
Morata is expected to be replaced at Milan by Mexican striker Santiago Gimenez, who is set to sign from Feyenoord.
