Atletico Madrid’s forward options have been further depleted following Alvaro Morata’s injury and he is a doubt for the UEFA Champions League clash with defending champions Liverpool in the last-16 on February 18.
The Spain forward was injured early in the second half in 1-0 defeat to rivals Real Madrid. He injured his right leg.
Atletico Madrid haven’t won in their last 5 games and were without forwards Diego Coasta and Joao Felix.
Diego Costa could return ahead of the Liverpool game while Joao Felix’s injury is considered to be too serious and he could be sidelined for a while.
Atletico Madrid are sixth in the Spanish Laliga table, three points outside the top four.
