Alvaro Morata Profile

Alvaro Morata is a very complete striker. Fast in attack, skilled, able to go past players and he has a good character. A killer in the area and always amongst the top scorers in all of the teams he has played in. His quality, goal-scorer’s instinct and opportunism have helped him to keep his spot through the lower ages groups for Spain.

He arrived at Real Madrid in 2008 from Getafe to play in the u-18s C. He has since become one of the Factory’s most valuable products and had his debut with the first team in Zaragoza, 1, Real Madrid, 3, at the hands of José Mourinho. In his first season with Castilla he was the top scorer of the Second Division Group B. He led Spain to victory in the u-19 European Championships. This season he travelled to the United States with the first team.

Among Morata’s hobbies are reading and playing video games. Other sports he plays are golf and paddle tennis. He has the good fortune to be training regularly with his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo.

His quality, work and commitment have made him a fixture in the lower ages groups for Spain, with whom he became European u-19 Champion in Romania along with other Madrid academy players Dani Carvajal and Álex Fernández.
