Spain coach Luis de la Fuente believes Atletico Madrid striker Alvaro Morata deserves a legend status in their country.
Morata is currently having a brilliant performance at the ongoing Euro 2024, where the team will play England in the final on Sunday.
In a chat with Marca, Fuente stated that Morata has not been treated by fans back in Spain.

“In Spain we find it difficult to recognise good things we have. Morata is a clear example. He has the numbers of a superstar,” said De la Fuente.
“He’s the fourth top scorer in Spain’s history, third in the Euros, and won titles at top level clubs.
“He would be a legend in another country, but in ours it’s difficult.
“I’m 100% behind him. He has the support of his teammates and coaches and they feel bad about the attitude of a certain sector of the press towards him.”
