Emerson urges Juventus striker Morata to reject Real Madrid

Former Roma midfielder Emerson has urged Alvaro Morata to stick with Juventus.

Real Madrid have plans of buying back Morata before selling him to another club.

"I tell Morata to think twice before leaving Juventus for Real Madrid," Brazilian midfielder Emerson told Tuttosport.

Real Madrid is a team that every player dreams of. I lived that dream, so I know the environment and how difficult it is to play there.

“It was very different to Italy in terms of mentality and that made me struggle in the first few months.

“This is why I tell Morata to think twice and carefully consider the situation. Real Madrid are the top, but Juve have found a calm about them and the atmosphere around the club works to protect the players.

“In Madrid if you don't score for two games, you are considered unimportant and some pointless add-on. Morata would not be given the kind of consideration he receives at Juve."
