“I don’t want to go on about this too much… It seems that in the end you are always coming up with some excuse or complaining,” the international striker explained to Juanfe Sanz when asked about the differences in treatment he receives in Spain and abroad.
It’s a matter of respect. I’m not talking about people loving me or not loving me… I’ve experienced many episodes with my family on the street.

“It’s a question of respect. I’m not talking about whether people like me or not. It’s a question of respect and in Spain a lot of people, not to mention in the football world… I’ve experienced many episodes with my family on the street,” says the 31-year-old footballer.
No matter how many unpleasant episodes you have to live through, it is my daily life.

Morata was not candid about his bad times: “I have thought about throwing in the towel many times, but in the end when I tell my children my story, the best thing I can teach them is that I have been in the shit many times and in the end I have always managed to get my head out. And that is a source of pride for me.”

The Atlético de Madrid footballer made it clear that “I have hit rock bottom” and spoke about the solutions he resorted to to get off the ground: “Today I have my psychologist, my psychiatrist and a coach. They have helped me a lot. They and my wife are the thread that holds me up in delicate moments and they are the who value you and make you see yourself with different eyes… We throw out what we eat, but what goes into your head doesn’t come out.”
Morata’s reaction to his wife’s message: “You are the greatest fighter…”
“Without my wife (Alice Campello) my career would have been completely different,” he said.
