Alvaro Morata, captain of the Spain national team, and vocally beloved by many teammates, has not always enjoyed the same relationship with fans. Often moving about, AC Milan are the his fifth club, but he has zig-zagged across European football’s elite over the last decade.

Now leading the line for the Rossoneri, Morata has spoken about feeling much more comfortable in Italy, having suffered mental health issues playing in Spain. The criticism towards him has often been harsh, while playing for both of Madrid’s major teams has not endeared him to Real Madrid.

At one stage, he was the darling of the Madridistas though. A rare homegrown product, Morata came through the academy, the first real prospect up front since the departure of Raul Gonzalez, and Relevo have revealed that in his early days, he was closer to the fans than the vast majority of Real Madrid players. Morata even made a habit of going to bars with the club’s ultras after the games at the Santiago Bernabeu.

That relationship has long been forgotten in the northern stretches of Madrid, where he was not shy of sticking to the fans at his former club when scoring against them for Atletico. As he returns to his home city on Tuesday night, he is unlikely to get a warm reception from the Bernabeu.
