Alvaro Morata admits Italy was the ideal home for a Spaniard
Alvaro Morata says he cannot
see himself living in London very long, admitting he finds England's
capital "stressful", ahead of returning to Italy for Chelsea's clash
with Roma.
The striker left Juventus in 2016 to re-join Real Madrid
after the Spanish club activated a buy-back clause in his contract,
having won two Serie A titles and helped Juve reach the Champions League
final in his two years in Turin.
Despite struggling to earn
regular first-team opportunities at Real Madrid, Morata has quickly got
up to speed with the Premier League since moving to Chelsea - scoring
six goals in nine appearances - but it is the pace of life off the pitch
which is taking its toll on the forward.
"I'm fine," Morata told Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport.
"I live in downtown Chelsea. London fascinates me with its
multi-ethnicity, the coexistence of cultures and religions, but I do not
see myself living here for very long. Too much, too much stress, too
many metropolises."
Morata, whose wife is Italian, felt he arrived
at Juventus "a boy" but left as "a real player", admitting the
environment was perfectly suited for him - and not one he wanted to
leave in order to return to Madrid.
