Victorious on the lawn of Getafe (0-3), Atlético Madrid launched its La Liga season perfectly. Author of a very good performance by scoring twice, Colchoneros striker Álvaro Morata has been in great shape since his return to Madrid this summer. The 29-year-old Spanish international is very sharp at the moment, which is why Diego Simeone chose to start him on Monday evening alongside Joao Félix, and to the detriment of Antoine Griezmann, who started the game on the bench of substitutes.
Morata wants to stay at Atlético
After the match against Getafe, Colchoneros coach Diego Simeone expressed his desire to see Morata stay at Atético this season: “Today he is doing well, he works with great humility and we hope he will continue with us”. Comments relayed by the Spanish daily Marca.
For his part, the former Juventus player is courted in the Premier League, in particular by Manchester United, but that does not prevent Morata from wanting to continue at Atlético, despite the many requests from England: “I really want to play here. I’m excited to be here, as always, I can only work and run for the team every game.”
Words that should delight Atlético supporters. As a reminder, Álvaro Morata is under contract with the Madrid club until 2024. The Spanish striker could shine again next Sunday, the Colchoneros will host Villarreal.
