Morata 'not thinking’ of Madrid
Striker Alvaro Morata says he is 'so happy' at Juventus that he 'can't even think' of returning to Real Madrid.
The 22-year-old was signed from Los Blancos for €20m last summer, but the Spanish club has a clause on their original deal that would let them buy the player back next year for €30m.
Morata, interviewed by Spanish radio Onda Cero, was categorical in affirming that he did not want to go back.
“For me, even just thinking of a transfer would be disrespectful to my club, my Coach and my teammates,” he said.
“I'm so happy where I am that I can't even bring myself to think about Real Madrid or other teams.
“I still don't understand how I could have gone from strong performances in the pitch to being left out of the squad,” he said of his experience with Los Merengues.
“I didn't expect to be a starter, but I did expect a better treatment.
“I barely had a relationship with [Real Madrid Coach Carlo] Ancelotti, while [Juventus Coach Max] Allegri gives me much greater consideration."
In closing, Morata had some encouraging comments about Italian football, in spite of its moment of crisis.
“It's evolving, and it's better fun than it was a few years ago. I admire [Andrea] Pirlo and [Gianluigi] Buffon since I was a child.
“It's impossible to score against Buffon in training, so sometimes I just stand behind Pirlo to watch him shoot a free-kick. Me, I hold back, as I don't want to look ridiculous!”
i still don´t believe that he will have any say if they want him back... but obviously it wouldn´t make much sence to get an unhappy player back :xfinger:.
