Morata Praised Kovacic

DBasia.news – Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata assumed Mateo Kovacic as the player with above the average quality. Morata believed the former Inter Milan player will give positive impact to The Blues’ central line.

Mateo Kovacic came during the last second of the transfer market. The Croatia national team player was part of Thibaut Courtois’ transfer. Real Madrid loaned the player for one season with no buying options.

Morata greeted Kovacic with open arms. Moreover, he could help him with the accurate passings.

“Mateo, first of all, is an amazing person. He is a midfielder who is good with the ball, very technical. He can break through the lines with his quality, he can score goals and he has a lot of power in his legs,” Morata told Chelsea’s official website.

“With him, we will win a lot of possession and he has the ability to carry the ball into the final third and provide passes for the strikers,” the former Juventus player added.

Before leaving to Chelsea, Kovacic was rumored to another Premier League club, Manchester City. But the price tag was too high.

“He’s a very good player which is very important for us because we need top players,” the Spanish player concluded.

Mateo Kovacic hasn’t taken part when Chelsea defeated Huddersfield 3-0 in the first week of 2018-2019 Premier League at John Smith’s Stadium, Saturday (11/8)
