Morata Shocker! 'Yes, I could return to Real'
Many doubts surround Juventus star Alvaro Morata's future. With many media sources insisting that Real Madrid intent to excercise their Recompra clause and bring the Spaniard back to the Santiago Bernabeu, Bianconeri fans have been justifiably preoccupied that they may lose their star to the team that he downed in last year's Champions League semi-finals (Big Game Alvaro!)
Unfortunately, Morata's recent declarations to Cadena Copa indicated that he's uncertain about next season.
"It's hard for me to talk about next year, because I don't know where I'll be, and that's a strange situation for me. I can't wait for this Recompra issue to be solved".
"I'm happy in Turin, but I want to know where I can buy a house! I want to know as soon as possible".
"I'm happy in Turin, but returning to Real is a real possibility, because there's a contract, it's all black on white already".
Recent reports had Morata chatting with Real Madrid Emilio Butragueno by phone, something the young striker confirmed. "I've spoken to him a lot, but not just about football, about life in general. He has a fundamental role at Madrid in my opinion, as well as in my life. As a player who grew up in the cantera, it's a privilege that he sends me messages of support after a goal, or a game".
Morata went through an extended dry spell this season, not scoring from October to February's Coppa Italia win over Inter :"I'm in good shape, but I know I can improve, I can give more and be more consistent".
A few more Bayern performances should do the trick!
