Chelsea's sensational striker, Alvaro Morata says the reason why he left Real Madrid to join Chelsea was to have more playing time and develop his career. The Spaniard who scored the decisive goal that downed Manchester United on Sunday at Stanford Bridge stated this in an interview with Marca.
On the reason why he left the Los Blancos, Morata said;
"In the end, the only decisive reason, which Real Madrid were not able to give me, was to play each Sunday, whether good or bad. Now there have been three games where I have not been at my best physically but I have continued to play. This is what I needed.
"Real Madrid are Real Madrid and any player would want to be at Real Madrid. Why would I want to leave Real Madrid? I wanted to play, nothing else. It has been said that I did not want to battle but I fought all my life to be at Real Madrid and be in the starting eleven. All my life, but I needed to play and in Chelsea I have got what I wanted."
Asked if he regrets moving to London, Morata said he is enjoying his stay at the Club and disclosed that he would spend many years at Stanford Bridge.
"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"
