Morata happy at Juventus: Fans' applause meant a lot

Alvaro Morata says he's happy at Juventus after victory over Hellas Verona.

The on-loan Atletico Madrid striker pushed to leave for Barcelona last month.

Morata said, "What happened happened, I am here. The club and coach said they have faith in me and that is very important to me.

“The fans applauded me when I was substituted today too and that meant a lot. Everyone in every profession wants to feel wanted and important, so that's how I feel right now."

On Dusan Vlahovic's arrival, he said: "These things happen in life. I am almost 30 years old, we signed one of the best centre-forwards in the world and he is very young, so has many years to keep growing and improving.

“I am happy, we work well together with (Paulo) Dybala too, we've got to work on it so we can do even better."
