But the Uruguay goal machine wants to stay in the Spanish capital after hitting the ground running.

The 34-year-old striker signed a two-year deal after joining from LaLiga rivals Barcelona after last season.
And, according to Marca, he has a clause in his contract that lets him leave for free this summer if he wants to.
But the report adds that Suarez has no intention of triggering it with Atletico on course to win the Spanish league.
Suarez has already been paid a bonus by Atletico after scoring for fun.
The 33-year-old is LaLiga’s top scorer with 16 goals in 18 games, and seven in his last five.
His goals have fired Atletico Madrid to the top of LaLiga – five points ahead of Real Madrid with two games in hand.
Former club Barca are eight points behind.
And Mundo Deportivo reported that the Uruguayan was paid a million Euros bonus (£880,000) for scoring 15 goals.

Suarez is also in line for another payout if and when he makes it to 20 goals, which seems like a formality.
The Uruguay striker has found a new lease of life since his tearful exit from Barcelona last year.
Suarez was reportedly told by new boss Ronald Koeman that he wasn’t part of his plans.
He was seen driving out of the training ground for the last time in tears after six years at the club – during which he won four LaLigas and the Champions League.
Atletico have lost just one league game this season and Suarez credits manager Diego Simeone with their record.

He told Onda Cero: “He is one of those coaches who convinces you by his desire and positivity and by everything he knows about this.
“I rely more on the coach’s conviction when speaking to you than on the style of play he has.
“Simeone is a coach who reaches out to you and motivates you.
“I would not like to be a coach, you suffer a lot and you can’t keep everyone happy.”
