It was incredible moment [when I met Buffon], Morata has told Marca.
To play and share the dressing room with him is a privilege.I took his shirt at the Bernabeu, and he was the first one here to give me advice.
Morata stands alongside compatriot Fernando Llorente in competition for places with the Bianconeri.
In Spain, I was made ​​ball boy during a match Llorente played in. I also have his shirt hanging in my living room. He is a great player and a great person.
I’ve been lucky enough to meet someone like Fernando and apart from admiring him as a player, he has helped me in everything and taken care of me.
He brings me to training and drives me, tells me where to eat or shop. We share a room when we’re away. He’s a great guy. He also gives me Italian lessons! I can’t ask for any more.
The truth is almost everyone has taken me home after training. One of them even took me to the dentist. These players are a family.
I immediately think of [Roberto] Pereyra, [Kwadwo] Asamoah, [Andrea] Barzagli, [Giorgio] Chiellini…
I live in the centre of Turin, the people are very polite. I like going out with my dog. [Pogba and I] speak often, we have many friends in common, such as [Raphael] Varane.
Morata then reflected on the legacies left by two of the Bianconeri’s most famous No 9s and admitted that he would love to follow in their footsteps.
I just have to work, work and work. [The No 9 shirt] is a great motivation. If I think about [previous Juventus No 9s, Zlatan] Ibrahimovic and [Filippo] Inzaghi, I can’t help but want to improve,” he continued.
I am grateful to Real Madrid. I had a wonderful eight years there, but now I am happy in this new stage of my career.
Juve were persistent in their attempts to sign me, and I just want to help them win more trophies.
