Spanish star Alvaro Morata appears to have found his calling at Galatasaray.
He has expressed his desire to continue with the Turkish club, but on one condition: he will not sign a replacement striker should Nigerian Victor Osimhen leave.
Morata, on loan from Milan until January 2026, is aiming to finish the season by winning the league and cup double, and believes he can form a formidable attacking duo with Mauro Icardi, who is returning from a long-term injury.
He also emphasizes that maintaining his starting position is key to his continued success, especially given his aspirations for continued participation with the Spanish national team.
Galatasaray retains the option to purchase his contract until January 15, or extend the loan until the end of the following season, offering him a net salary of €3 million per half-season.
So far, Morata has scored four goals and provided one assist in just eight matches, totaling just 431 minutes played.
In the last match against Eyup, he came on in the 67th minute, assisted a goal, and scored two goals in two minutes, leading his team to a resounding 5-1 victory and earning widespread acclaim from the fans.
After the match, Morata expressed his happiness, saying, "I'm very happy with the win and the atmosphere in Turkey. Osimhen is a fantastic player and an ideal teammate, and I hope we can lift the cup and the league together this season."
