Alvaro Morata says he’s ‘happy at Juventus’, and hasn’t had any contact with Real Madrid.
The Spanish striker joined the Bianoconeri last summer, but Los Blancos retain a buyback clause for summer 2016, and the following year.
“I’m happy at Juventus, I want to win more titles here,” Morata told Cadena Cope.
Alvaro Morata says he’s ‘happy at Juventus’, and hasn’t had any contact with Real Madrid.
The Spanish striker joined the Bianoconeri last summer, but Los Blancos retain a buyback clause for summer 2016, and the following year.
“I’m happy at Juventus, I want to win more titles here,” Morata told Cadena Cope.
“More than my own personal season, this season has been about a team which had won the Scudetto three times, and many people didn’t think they could win a fourth with a different Coach [Max Allegri].
“The Coach has proven himself to be a great Coach, and the team has created a great group. They welcomed me well, it feels like I’ve been playing with them for four or five years.
“Has [Madrid Coach Rafa] Benitez called me? No.”
The 22-year-old also revealed how he came to join the Turin side, insisting he was never really close to Borussia Dortmund.
“In the end, they [Dortmund] couldn’t reach an agreement with Madrid, but in my head here [Turin] is where I always wanted to play.
“Juventus literally came to my house, and the sporting director [Fabio Paratici] spoke to me at a time when I wasn’t feeling good and told me what could happen this year. There was mutual trust.”
Morata also reflected on the Old Lady’s Champions League run this season, which saw them knock out Real Madrid, before going down to Barcelona in the final.
“If it means we’re in the semi-finals of the Champions League, then I hope we play them again,” the forward said when asked about Madrid.
“The final? It was a great opportunity, and I think it’s normal to be a little angry. That’s normal, I lost a cup final.
“When I see some of those who played [for Barcelona] with the national team, it brings the memories back, but that’s football.
“I want to get back to the final and win.”
It was revealed earlier this week that the youngster had not kept his runner-up medal, so what did he do with it?
“I gave it to a friend who has helped me a lot, and deserved it.
“I didn’t sleep that night, I had to leave at 5am to go to the airport to come to Madrid.
“Still, for my first year at Juve it’s not bad.”
