Morata reveals relief at settling in Madrid after nightmare stint at Chelsea

  /  autty

Alvaro Morata has briefly opened up about his true feelings towards his time as a Chelsea player.

The Atletico Madrid striker made the move back to Spain in January on an 18-month loan deal, a move that will be made permanent next summer.

And the Spain international has admitted the return to the Spanish capital put an end to a nightmare spell for him, and his wife Alice Campello, in the UK.

'It seems like the obvious thing to say to gain points with the fans but my family and I were coming from a really bad time in London,' he told the press at a Button Watch collection launch, as per The Sun.

'Here we have regained our happiness.

'Though many people may not believe it, we spent four or five summers wanting to come to Atletico. I am very happy.'
