MADRID, 7 One. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Atlético de Madrid could lose French striker Antoine Griezmann to next week’s dispute of the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia after the player relapsed to Rayo Majadahonda from his right thigh injury.
“Antoine Griezmann has suffered a relapse in the muscle injury he suffered in his right thigh,” the rojiblanco team reported on Friday about the state of the international, who had to retire this Thursday in the second half of the cup duel when he had barely 20 minutes in the countryside.
Macon’s was evaluated by the medical services and subjected to medical tests at the University of Navarra Clinic, which detected that “the scar had opened” from his previous injury during the derby against Real Madrid on December 14.
Atlético de Madrid did not encrypt any period of absence and limited itself to saying that its return is “pending evolution”. “Today he will begin medical and physiotherapy treatment and will soon resume the rehabilitation process,” he said.
In this way, what is certain is that Diego Pablo Simeone will not be able to count on the forward for the visit this Sunday to Villarreal in LaLiga Santander and that it is quite difficult for him to be ready for the Spanish Super Cup, where the league champion debuts the next Thursday against Athletic Club.
