Alvaro Morata claims Chelsea move from Real Madrid was the right decision and wants to stay at Stamford Bridge for ‘a long time’
Striker has been in top form since joining the Premier League champions from Real Madrid for £60m last summer
ALVARO MORATA has no regrets after joining Chelsea and hopes to remain with the English champions for “a long time” to come.
The striker has been an instant hit at Stamford Bridge following his club-record £60million move from Real Madrid last summer.
Morata has already scored seven goals in just ten Premier League appearances after he was giving the task of replacing fan favourite Diego Costa.
And despite a mini-blip which has seen Chelsea fall nine points behind leaders Manchester City, Morata is confident he made the right decision to link up with Antonio Conte.
The Spain international told Marca: “Why would I want to leave Real Madrid? I wanted to play, nothing else.
“It has been said that I didn’t want to battle but I fought all my life to be at Real and in the starting 11. But I needed to play and in Chelsea I have got what I wanted.

“I would never regret joining a club like Chelsea and hopefully I will be a long time at Chelsea. You should never have regrets in life.
“All the steps that I have taken in my career have served for something and I have learned from them.

“I won in Italy, I won at Real Madrid and I felt important. Now I have a challenge ahead of me to be champion in Spain, Italy and England.
“None or very few Spaniards have achieved that and that is my goal. To win the Premier League and be the Spaniard that has won in three different countries.”
