The domino effect of Osimhen’s transfer to Galatasaray is crucial, as it enables Morata’s early exit from his loan. Galatasaray no longer require Morata, freeing up the pathway for his move to Italy. Como view Morata as a marquee signing as they look to build on last season's 10th-place finish in Serie A.
