Tottenham and Newcastle make late market moves for Juventus striker Alvaro Morata

Tottenham and Newcastle are making late market moves for Juventus striker Alvaro Morata.

Morata is currently on loan at Juventus from Atletico Madrid.

But with the Old Lady about to seal the signing of Dusan Vlahovic from Fiorentina, Morata's services are no longer required.

Barcelona boss Xavi reportedly requested the signing of the former Real Madrid man.

But according to El Partizado de Cope, Morata may return to the Premier League on loan.

They reckon that Spurs and Newcastle have also lodged bids for the 29-year-old.

Atletico had been set on selling the striker permanently this month.

But they could accept a loan bid from either of the two English clubs.
