Antonio Conte: "Alvaro Morata is a great player"

Juventus boss Antonio Conte hints that he wants to sign Real Madrid youngster Alvaro Morata this summer.

Juventus boss Antonio Conte has said that Real Madrid youngster Alvaro Morata "has the potential to become a world-class attacker".

The 21-year-old is highly regarded in Spain, but has struggled to secure a regular role in the Los Blancos first team this season.

Juve have been strongly linked with a move in recent months and now Conte has added fuel to the fire by praising the Spanish Under-21 international.

"Morata is a great player and has a big future ahead of him," Conte told Marca.

"I can say with certainty that he has the potential to become a world-class attacker. However, he is a Real Madrid player at this point."

Morata's current contract expires next summer.
