Former Spain captain Morata joins second-tier Leganes
Veteran striker Alvaro Morata, who has previously played for Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea, and AC Milan, has joined Spanish second-tier club Leganes on loan from Italian side Como. The 33-year-old, who captained Spain to the 2024 European Championship title, played 26 matches in Serie A last season as Como qualified for the Champions League, a competition he won twice with Real Madrid.
Leganes, who finished 16th in the second division last season, have an option to buy Morata at the end of the season. The club is owned by American investment group Blue Crow, who also own Le Havre in France.
