Tuttosport have reported today that the 22-year-old, who was injured against Genoa last weekend, is close to a return to fitness.

The Old Lady are also believed to be working towards an extension, as Real Madrid currently have the right to re-sign Moata next summer.
However, the final decision will rest with the player and Tuttosport have reported that his agent has met with Bianconeri directors to discuss a new deal reportedly worth €3.5m per season until 2020.
Such a renewal would be a dramatic improvement on Morata’s current €2m per year contract in Turin.
