Alvaro Morata believes it was his destiny to work under Antonio Conte at Chelsea.

The Spaniard missed out on working with the Italian when Conte left Juventus for Italy, which was in the same summer Morata joined the Old Lady on loan from Real Madrid.

"I know Antonio wanted me in the past and I really want to work with Antonio, and finally destiny put us together," Morata told Chelsea's official website.

"I can't wait to play for him and for Chelsea and to win together.

"It was disappointing in 2014 when he went to Italy, but I played well and had a good year at Juventus, but I really want to work with this coach and finally I can.

"I know his work, the staff. I know it is a lot of tactics and I really like this game and I know how to play with this system."
