Como ready to release Morata with extra 3m to Galatasaray
The Alvaro Morata saga might finally be coming to an end with reports Como intervened to offer €3m to Galatasaray, helping to break the Milan loan impasse. The striker agreed personal terms almost two months ago and has been increasingly frustrated by the lack of progress for this return to Serie A. The problem is that he joined Galatasaray on loan in January for €6m with an obligation to buy in January 2026 for a further €8m. Galatasaray want Morata golden handshake payment MURCIA, SPAIN – OCTOBER 12: Alvaro Morata of Spain is challenged by Victor Nelsson of Denmark during the UEFA Nations League 2024/25 League A Group A4 match between Spain and Denmark at Nueva Condomina on October 12, 2024 in Murcia, Spain. (Photo by Mateo) Now the Turkish team is demanding a big payment to interrupt that agreement, release him back to Milan so that he can then join Como. According to the breakthrough can be achieved if Como help Milan to pay that penalty, so President Mirwan Suwarso is stepping in to propose €3m. That can reduce Milan's payment to just €5-6m so that everyone can be satisfied with the outcome. Como coach Cesc Fabregas is eager to work with Morata, who turns 33 in October and brings valuable experience to what is otherwise a largely young team. Milan had only purchased the Spaniard from Atletico Madrid for €13m in July 2024.

Jamal Musiala: Extent of Bayern Munich star's injury revealed as player leaves Club World Cup tie on stretcher
Paris Saint-Germain have wished Jamal Musiala well after the Bayern Munich star appeared to suffer a serious injury during the two sides' fiery Club World Cup clash, which could reportedly sideline him for up to five months. The injury - which German media outlet Sport BILD reports is a broken left fibula - occurred when Musiala collided with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma while chasing a loose ball near the byeline at the end of first-half stoppage time on Saturday. Hitting the turf and remaining there for several minutes before being stretchered off, the 22-year-old was in pain as he clutched his left ankle, which appeared to be twisted at an unnatural angle. Donnarumma was not penalised by the referee, who instead soon blew his whistle for half-time with the incident seemingly deemed to have been an accident. But the Italian shot-stopper immediately reacted with dismay, averting his gaze as players from both clubs surrounded the young Germany international and Bayern's physios were beckoned into the pitch. Musiala, making his first competitive start since early April after recovering from a muscular injury, had enjoyed a promising opening half and was preparing to inherit Bayern's iconic No10 shirt next season, but is now set for an extended period on the sidelines. BILD reports that the player has 'damaged several ligaments' in addition to breaking his left fibula, and 'will likely be out for four to five months'. 'Unfortunately, it doesn't look good,' was the assessment of Bayern Munich sporting director Christoph Freund when asked about Musiala's injury by Club World Cup broadcasters DAZN after the match. In his own post-match comments, Bayern boss Vincent Kompany confirmed Musiala had been taken to hospital and agreed that the injury 'didn't look good'. 'The overwhelming feeling is that I hope it's not as bad as it looks, and that he will get through this one,' he added. Referencing it being the player's 'second setback in a very short time', Kompany said his 'blood boils' at such an injury happening to a player who 'lives for this'. He continued: 'It will hit hard, but he's going to get through it and come back stronger.' Meanwhile, Ousmane Dembele, who scored PSG's decisive second goal on the night following Desire Doue's opener, said the injury was 'something you don't want to see on the field' - comments echoed by PSG captain Marquinhos. "Shout out to Jamal Musiala,' both players added, while PSG manager Luis Enrique opened his post-match press conference by wishing the 'unlucky' Bayern midfielder a speedy recovery. Opposition left-back Nuno Mendes similarly told reporters after the game: 'We feel very sorry for him. He's one of the best players, and we hope he comes back stronger." Fellow PSG full-back Achraf Hakimi said it was 'important we talk about Jamal Musiala,' adding: 'I want to give my support to him. We hope to see him back on the pitch soon." PSG's official account on X also posted a message of support to Musiala after the match, wishing the Bayern player a 'swift and full recovery.'

Revealed – Fee Inter Milan Expect To Sell Ex Bayern Munich Defender This Summer
Inter Milan would expect a fee in excess of €30 million for defender Benjamin Pavard. This according to Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInter1908. They report that the Nerazzurri would want at least in the region of what they paid for the Frenchman. Defender Benjamin Pavard has been an Inter Milan player for the past two seasons. He joined the club from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2023. There are no immediate indications that the 29-year-old is on the way out at the San Siro. However, according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, Pavard's age means that Inter do not consider him indispensable. The France international turns thirty next season, and is not necessarily a player for the long term. Inter Would Want A Fee Of At Least €30M For Benjamin Pavard SEATTLE, WASHINGTON – JUNE 20: Benjamin Pavard of FC Internazionale Milano faces the media during the Training/Press Conference ahead of their FIFA Club World Cup 2025 match between FC Internazionale Milano and Urawa Red Diamonds at Virginia Mason Athletic Center on June 20, 2025 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by) Inter Milan are not going to let Benjamin Pavard leave in a cut-price deal, though. As the Gazzetta dello Sport note, the Nerazzurri paid a fee of well over €30 million to sign the France international from Bayern. Therefore, Inter are certainly not going to sell Pavard at a loss. As such, the Gazzetta report, Inter would want a fee of over €30 million to consider selling Pavard this summer.
