Zidane has tried to make Morata stay

The coach of Real Madrid Zinedine Zidane doesn`t want Alvaro Morata to leave the club and has already had several conversations with him, in an attempt to persuade him to stay, according to the press.
The 24-year-old striker is not satisfied with his status as a reserve and thinks he should play more as considering offers from Chelsea and Manchester United, who offer him more time on the pitch.
Zidane, however, is unwilling to part with the player and was very pleased with it, after the footballer scored 20 goals in 42 appearances during the season, despite his limited opportunities. He is the second in hits after Ronaldo, but only in 18 minutes played, that says it all.
Morata, however, thinks about the future and pending World Cup next year, wants to secure the titular place at the team of Spain, and that will only happen if he plays regularly and scores goals.
The attacker was ignored for some of the most important matches in the campaign, which also was not liked by him, especially so after the Champions League final would have to take an important decision whether to leave or stay and try to oust Karim Benzema from the start.

No one can say who will win the final, but Buffon has never triumphed in the tournament. He deserves it and I would like to see him with the Golden Ball. I want Juventus to win because of Gianluigi.`, said the Spaniard, expressing a similar position to that of Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid.
`I want Real to slip against Malaga, but they have been very strong throughout the season. The game at Vigo was a key and they won it. I think it is hard to miss the Championship. They have great players like Kroos, Modric, and Isco. Malaga is in a great shape and winning there is not easy. The losses against Deportivo and Alaves had a bad influence on Barcelona.`, adedd the legend of the Catalans.

`We made a very strong season and we will play only for a victory. The result of the first game let us down, but we still feel the enjoyment of our participation in the Champions League because we know that we have a strong, young and talented team. Our main goal is not to feel anger or regret when we hear the final whistle.`, he added.

Toni Kroos: `It is good to have a teammate like Ronaldo!`

`It is good to have a player like Ronaldo!`, said Toni Kroos after Real Madrid had won with 3:0 against Atletico in a match according football tips of the semifinals of the Champions League football. The Portuguese striker scored all three goals for the benefit of the current European and world champions in the quarterfinals and scored four of Bayern.
`The result is excellent, of course. It is more than what we expected, but we played a perfect match according football tips and we deserved it. The day was good, and it was a good tactic because we played with one midfielder more than normal. We are usually with three midfielders and three forwards, but today we used four footballers in midfield, to control the game. The defense also was stable and the removal of the ball passed without any difficulties. The victory was well deserved, but we have to be careful at the Calderon because there it is always hard.`, he said.
`It is nice to have a player like Ronaldo. You can be very strong in defense and control the midfield, but you need a player who can score and to get the necessary result. He scored five of the six goals against Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals, and now three more fell. It is hard to believe it!`, added the German international.
