Alvaro Morata cannot wait to return to the pitch and aims to be ready and useful for Paulo Fonseca, especially in the derby.

Here are his words to Sky Sport Italia:
A derby to play with hunger...
"I can't wait to play the derby. Now I can say it for the first time: I came to San Siro to watch a couple of derbies as a fan, with my cap and black glasses, and no one noticed me. I wanted to feel that atmosphere, even from the outside you realize how important this game is, and I can't wait to experience scoring in a derby and winning it, to make Milan fans proud. Inter is very competitive, they have a great team, but you have to play with heart. You can make a mistake with a pass or a chance, but you must give everything on the pitch. You need hunger in a derby; that's something you can't miss."
Morata continued:
"I've learned from many coaches, and I've learned from many teammates. I think I still have the 4-5 most important years of my career ahead of me, and I feel ready to give everything with a very high level of experience. This is a great advantage for me."
