“I’m going to the team managed by the coach who has placed the most faith in me, and that’s great for me,” Morata told AS on Wednesday. “It has been a slightly strange summer for me. A lot of things have happened. In the end, if God wishes, tomorrow I will be at a club that have wanted me for years, with a gaffer whom I have spoken to constantly. So I’m really happy. I have been training hard for whatever outcome, but I was clear that this was my objective. It’s sad to leave Real Madrid, but I hope that everything will go well for me at Chelsea.” When talking about how his summer has been amid transfer rumors. “It has been a pleasure to play for Madrid, and I will always be with them apart from when they play Chelsea.”
“I have thanked him for everything, and wished him luck for this year.” in reference to Zinedine Zidane
“Until I see myself there, passing the medical and being presented, I still won’t be completely content. We have seen everything that has happened this summer, so I would prefer to wait until everything goes well.” If all goes well, Morata should be in blue colors very soon.
