The Spanish striker was unveiled today as Atlético's new footballer, and he does not seem to hold any feelings for his former club.

Alvaro Morata's arrival to Atlético Madrid has created a few waves, but there will be even more of those when he faces his former side: Real Madrid.

Speaking at a press conference, the former Los Blancos' footballer admitted that there are no hard feelings between himself and the current UEFA Champions League holders, but he would not hesitate to celebrate if he ends up scoring a goal against them.

"That would be a happy problem, don't you think? Hopefully all my problems came right after I scored a goal. If that moment comes, I think will find a way to sort themselves out but honestly, I don't have that much to think about," Morata said.

Previously, when he played for Juventus, Morata kept to himself when he scored two crucial goals that ended up eliminating Real Madrid from the UEFA Champions League. He would make a swift comeback to the Bernabeu that summer, but his inability to earn a spot in Zinedine Zidane's lineup despite putting up some good numbers forced him to search for other employment opportunities.

If things go as planned, Morata would make his debut at Wanda Metropolitano stadium against Real Madrid, which will surely add more controversy to an already tight game.
