'I was willing to stay for many years' - Morata admits he misses Juventus

The striker enjoyed a fine spell with the Bianconeri before returning to Real Madrid last summer after the Liga giants activated a buy-back clause

Alvaro Morata has admitted he misses Juventus, insisting he was willing to stay in Turin for “many years” had Real Madrid not re-signed him last summer.

The 24-year-old enjoyed a stellar spell with the Bianconeri after joining them from Real in 2014, lifting several honours including two Serie A titles and two Coppa Italia crowns with the Italian giants.

However, Morata's time at Juventus came to an end when Real activated a buy-back clause to re-sign him ahead of the 2016-17 season.
