Alvaro Morata has tipped his international team-mate Lamine Yamal for the highest individual honours in world football after witnessing the youngster's meteoric rise firsthand. The Leganes striker, who captained Spain to European glory, believes the Barcelona sensation possesses a level of maturity that defies his teenage years.
Alvaro Morata has insisted he is not closing the door on his international career after missing Spain's triumphant 2026 World Cup campaign. The veteran forward admitted that fierce competition in attack makes a recall difficult but reflected warmly on watching his former team-mates lift the trophy following a candid phone call from Luis de la Fuente.
Alvaro Morata has sealed a shock season-long loan move from Cesc Fabregas' Como to Segunda Division side Leganes, with an option to buy. The veteran Spain striker explained his return to Madrid by insisting that feeling valued and finding personal happiness matter far more than chasing major trophies or playing in the Champions League.
Alvaro Morata is closing in on a surprise loan move to Spanish second-tier outfit Leganes after a frustrating spell in Serie A with Como. The 33-year-old forward, who has commanded €229m in career transfer fees across spells with Europe's elite, is seeking a fresh start in Spain following a solitary goal during his time under Cesc Fabregas.
CD Leganes general manager Martin Ortega has backed Yan Diomande to thrive at Real Madrid amid reports linking him with a €120 million move to the Santiago Bernabeu. The 19-year-old Ivory Coast winger was only in the Leganes senior squad for a short time before moving to RB Leipzig, but Ortega has put him in the same bracket as Lamine Yamal and Ousmane Dembele.
