ROME (ITALPRESS) – “Is it worth it for me to go to the national team to be insulted and booed? No”. This is the question and the relative answer that the Spain captain Alvaro Morata asked himself in the documentary that “Movistar Plus” presented today, entitled “Alvaro Morata. They don’t know who I am”.
In the documentary, the former Juventus and Milan player, currently at Galatasaray, talks about the problems related to depression and panic attacks that he suffered before the European Championship and from which he recovered thanks to the help of a specialist: “Is “It worth it that every time I go to Spain with my family, I have unpleasant experiences and people mock you, insult you, and laugh at you? I don’t know if it’s worth it. Is it worth it to keep coming to the national team only to be insulted and whistled at in the stadiums where you play wearing the national team jersey? It’s not worth it.”
Morata also talks about his separation from his partner, Alice Campello: “I was afraid of everything. I had a lot of horrible and self-destructive thoughts. It crossed my mind to fake injuries, so that I wouldn’t have to be on the pitch. Your head provides you with all kinds of things that make you avoid what makes you suffer. It was as if I were in a dark room, where everyone was staring at me. My head was sending me signals, messages and voices that told me horrible things all the time,” explains Morata himself in the documentary.
