Alvaro Morata has opened up on his 'devastating' split from his wife Alice Campello.

The former Chelsea striker and the model split a week ago after seven years of marriage, during which time they produced four children.

They have insisted they still love each other and sought to dismiss any scurrilous rumours - or 'bulls***', the phrase Campello deployed - after Morata was accused of being in explicit photographs with another woman.

So forceful has the pressure been that Euro 2024-winning captain Morata - who recently signed for AC Milan after two years at Atletico Madrid - felt compelled to 'flee' his homeland.
