“That’s his challenge,” he told AS when asked if he could match the duo’s goal record. “He has the potential to achieve it – that’s why he’s here [with the Spain squad]. The best proof that I believe in him is that he’s been called up.
“Morata has very good qualities: physical strength, intelligent movement, intuition in the box, two feet, good with the ball and also in the air. He has everything to be a great striker.
“I expect hard work, movement, shots and, if there are chances, goals. He has to approach the midfielders, offer himself and provide an outlet to receive passes from his team-mates.

“He has to stretch teams, to know how to play on the shoulder of defenders. Essentially, everything you expect from a good striker.”
While, Iker Casillas says he is not sure whether he will be Spain’s No.1 in Euros.
“I do not know, that’s the truth,” he told AS when asked about his selection chances.
“I have no idea. All of us here think and believe that we can play, of course. There are 23 players who are important for their clubs. I think that all who come here [to the national team] think we can help the coach, but it’s a decision only he can make.
“Despite being older or having played in more European Championship finals, I have no certainty or assurance that I will play in this tournament.
“To me what I like is that, despite being 35, I still have the desire and belief and [I’m] still competing.”
