Chelsea striker Morata: Facing Chiellini like being in cage with hungry gorilla!

Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata is up for Spain's clash with Italy.

Morata knows he'll face former Juventus teammate Giorgio Chiellini.

“Who causes most problems for me? Chiellini!" Morata told El Pais.

“It's like being put in a cage with a gorilla and you have to steal his food. I think the few times I've managed to score against him it's been in the area.

“It's impossible to win a duel with Chiellini if it's one-on-one in the box or he's holding you."
