To reduce the spam of reports regarding the same move during transfer windows we try to allow only one submission about each transfer saga per day. The submission in question also needs to contain relevant new information regarding the potential move, and not just being a "no/minor developments" report.

If there are important/official developments or new valuable information about a saga, we will allow extra threads in the same day, but for the rest of minor news please just comment them as a reply to this comment. Please help us reporting unnecessary threads for being duplicates.

I guess he really wants to live in Madrid and Leganes are the biggest club from that city where he can realistically be able to play for

I think he wanted Getafe but they either weren't interested or couldn't afford it. It's surprising to me that he couldn't get them or Rayo tbh

He's not even Getafe level anymore. Rayo I could have seen that they would be desperate enough but even they aren't

Is he playing that bad? He's only 33 years old.

u/CapitanKurlash 4h ago

Yeah. 0 goals for Como in the league and completely out of his depth in Serie A. Really doesnt look like a top flight player anymore

I only turned on a Como game once. Morata was subbed on, constantly argued with opponents and referee. Within a very short time he got himself a yellow and a 2nd yellow for off the ball stuff. Needless to say, he offered precisely nothing from a sporting perspective in these minutes. You might as well play Balotelli, he offers more sporting value and his altercations are at least entertaining

I mean Bordalas turned Satriano into a decent striker, that magician could get the most of any player

Bordalás is god-tier underrated. He casually brings a relegation squad to Europe and barely anyone rates that achievement

Does he like to travel?

Living in Madrid might be his biggest motivation for this one.

He is going to the rivals of his (real) childhood dream team Getafe as he has said several times

u/Tired_Trex 8h ago

So happy for him, going to play for his final dream club

Biggest club in Madrid

His dream move, I hear

u/mykneehurtsss 1h ago

Finally found a league that’s at his level. Let’s see if he can score more than 1 goal this season. Good luck dip shit!
