Madrid striker discusses his time in Turin 'To Juve just for experience, I dreamed of going back to Real'

In view of the possible final of the Champions League between Real Madrid and Juventus, Alvaro Morata talked to the official TV of the Merengues, returning also to his past youth: "At Real are the best players in the world and it was difficult to find space to come back here one day. Also, as soon as I arrived in Turin I was injured, and I was unable to finish the preseason preparation. I struggled to get fit, and I started to watch films and read books in Italian. In the end, though, we won the Serie A, and I felt that the fans really wanted me, then fate made me meet Real in Champions. I suffered a lot, I would have paid to score that goal against another club. I'm in debt to Madrid and the Bernabeu."

'TO JUVE FOR EXPERIENCE' - "If Real did not repurchase me last summer--it would be my last chance to play here. They called my agent while I was in Europe to tell me I would be back with a new contract, and knowing that they would not resell me because they believed in me. It was a day I was waiting for a long time, I just had to experience myself."
