Real Madrid Coach Carlo Ancelotti believes striker Alvaro Morata will remain at Juventus, despite a buy-back clause.
The youngster was impressive in Tuesday’s win over Borussia Dortmund, leading to speculation that Los Merengues will exercise their right of redemption in the summer, but the tactician says he’ll stay in Turin.
“He needed to play,” Ancelotti explained, recalling his departure in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.

“He needed to play,” Ancelotti explained, recalling his departure in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.
“He’s a young boy who was looking for more opportunities and consistency. He had a lot of offers, he’s the one who chose Juve.
“He’s a modern striker, he has pace, rhythm and intensity, he’s cool in front of goal and is a hard worker.
“In Morata’s contract there’s a right of redemption [for us], but I think he’ll stay at Juventus.”
