Alvaro Morata.
'Conte is the manager who most
'bet' on me, without even ever
having had me in his team,
'He bet on me for Juventus but left
before I arrived, then he wanted
me at Chelsea come what may. He
knows me better than I could
imagine, I'm sure, and that's
important: it motivates you to
work hard, train well,
'I feel indebted to him because he's the coach that most trusted in me, most wanted me, who made me feel I could perform at the highest level,
'And yet I've never had the fortune to actually work with him. I'm sure sooner or later I will. The future excites me, whether that's Madrid or somewhere else. I still have to learn, improve. I can do a lot but I need to play more and for someone to really back me.
'Various Premier League coaches
called to tell me to play for them. I
said yeah, I'd like to, that if I had to leave I would almost certainly go to London, but that I didn't know what Madrid would do,
'I knew they'd bring me back but I
didn't know if it was to keep me or sell me. I spoke directly to Mauricio Pochettino and Antonio Conte, although the norm is clubs call my dad or agent. Madrid said they didn't want to sell, so here I am.'
