Spanish forward Alvaro Morata has said that it feels "incredible" to have returned to Real Madrid.

The 23-year-old departed Los Blancos for Juventus in July 2014, but re-joined the Spanish giants in this summer's transfer window after his buy-back clause, which stood in the region of £23m, was activated.

It had been thought that Real Madrid would look to sell the Spaniard on for a profit this summer, but head coach Zinedine Zidane recently revealed that he was "happy" to have Morata back and the striker feels similarly.

"It is incredible to be here again. It is a dream come true and I can't wait to get started," Morata told Real Madrid's official website.

"I can't wait for tomorrow to arrive so we can get to work. Zidane works hard and does a lot of physical work. I have had two great years at Juventus, I learned a lot and I can only be thankful because without this experience I would not be here."

Champions League holders Real Madrid will begin their pre-season campaign against Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain in Ohio next Thursday.
