Morata: A Red and White Regret
Álvaro Morata, an unexpected protagonist of a summer of moves, confesses his possible mistake in leaving Atlético de Madrid after the European Championship. Despite promising on social media to stay until winning a title with the club, the striker ended up signing for Milan.
However, a subsequent loan to Galatasaray, after failing to succeed in Italy, has made him reflect on his decision. Morata admits that, if he could go back, he would think twice before leaving the Metropolitano.
He acknowledges that uncertainty about his future during the European Championship clouded his judgment and led him to make a hasty decision. The insistence of Paulo Fonseca, then coach of Milan, was a determining factor in his departure.
Despite ruling out a possible return to Atlético, Morata cherishes fond memories of his time at the club and the affection he received from Cholo. He highlights the unconditional support of the coach in a delicate personal moment, something that pleasantly surprised him.
As for the present, Morata is experiencing a new stage in Turkey, although he does not forget his red and white past. He confesses to having passionately followed the Champions League match between Atlético and Real Madrid, especially regretting the cancellation of Julián Álvarez’s goal. The striker believes that the play was not clear and advocates for the use of technology to avoid errors of this type in the future.
