London stress could force Morata to leave Chelsea

CAIRO – 30 October 2017: Chelsea’s Spanish striker Alvaro Morata revealed that he does not see himself living in London for a long time.

“I live in downtown Chelsea. London fascinates me with its multi-ethnicity, the coexistence of cultures and religions, but I do not see myself living here for very long. Too much, too much stress, too many metropolises," Morata told La Gazzetta Dello Sport on Monday.

Morata, born in Madrid, moved to London this summer to play for Chelsea.

Morata spoke to the Italian magazine about his life in Italy during his time with Juventus, saying, “Italy for a Spaniard is the best country to live in. You have everything: beauty, history, art, cooking, fashion.”

Morata spoke about leaving Juventus to join Real Madrid in 2016, saying, “I would never have left Italy and Juve. The disappointment of leaving was enormous; I found myself back to the starting point. Real Madrid treated me like the guy I was before the two Italian seasons."

Morata returned to Italy with Chelsea to face AS Roma in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
