Morata has started his Chelsea career brilliantly on the pitch, scoring three goals in four Premier League matches and the Spaniard believes the Blues are capable of reaching the final of the Champions League.
‘It’s an incredible competition,’ Morata told the club's official website. ‘With all the teams I’ve played for in the Champions League I have reached the final and I hope to do so this year too.
'It’s very difficult to win the Champions League but I think we have a good team, and with a good mentality we can do good things.’
