Juventus and Spanish forward Alvaro Morata is proud to have played with ‘one of the best football players in history’ in Cristiano Ronaldo and vows to tell his kids everything about it.
The on-loan Juventus striker revealed he finds it easy to play alongside ‘quality’ Cristiano Ronaldo, who can score goals that wouldn’t be possible for any ordinary footballer and can play in different roles without difficulty.

Alvaro Morata since his loan move from Atletic Madrid to Juventus has enjoyed fine form and the forward now reveals how thrilling his reunion with Ronaldo is.
“It’s easy to play with him,” Morata told Sky Sports Italia.

“In Parma, I gave him an assist that only he could see and understand. I understand his movements and what he likes to do.
