Alvaro Morata revealed his biggest regret is the Champions League Final Juventus lost to Barcelona. “I’d love to play it again.”
The Bianconeri were beaten 3-1 by the Blaugrana in the 2015 edition, having eliminated the likes of Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid along the way.
“I’d love to play the Champions League Final again so we could try to win it this time,” Morata told young Juve fans in a special event at the Vinovo training centre.
“Getting there was an achievement too and I heard so many people were happy to be back in the Champions League Final after many years. That’s why my goal against Real Madrid in the semi-final is my favourite.
“In order to become great players you must first of all enjoy yourself playing football, then go to bed early before a game and make lots of little sacrifices that are absolutely easy to put up with when you get to do something you love.”
Having confessed his hero growing up was Real Madrid icon Raul, Morata hinted again he wants to remain in Turin.
“My favourite shirt number is 7 because of Raul. Who knows, maybe next year I’ll change it with Simone Zaza, who is also my roommate.
“I chose 9 because it was free and a big responsibility considering all the great champions who had worn it at Juve in the past.
“The secret of success is to not just worry about yourself. Everyone must be available for their teammates, to give them a hand.
“It’s a good thing to all row in the same direction. You can see this at Juve every time someone scores: we all celebrate together as if the goal was ours.
“Here it’s not just a football team, but a real family.”
