Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata: I never wanted to leave Juventus

Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata says he loved his time with Juventus.

Morata admits he was reluctant to leave last summer.

"I am not Italian, but I gave everything for the Bianconero shirt and I was willing to stay there many years," Morata said during an interview with Corriere Dello Sport.

"Juventus knew that, the only problem was that Madrid had been my dream since when I was little.

"Without the buy back option, you would have had to drive me to get me away from Turin!"
