Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone believes he will count on João Félix’s quick recovery despite being injured, admitting that the striker will take part, on Wednesday, in the Champions League clash with Milan, in the Spanish capital , counting for the fifth round of Group B of the Champions League, the same as FC Porto and Liverpool.
“I hope it’s just a blow with an injury that passes, and that, against Milan, or, at the latest, against Cádiz, I can be with the team,” said the Argentine, in a press conference.
Asked about João Félix’s state of mind after suffering a new injury this season, Simeone considered “normal that any player who gets injured is not happy”.
The truth is that the Portuguese international will miss the game against Osasuna, this Saturday, counting for the 14th round of La Liga, after being injured in training for the mattresses.
The 22-year-old forward left training earlier on Wednesday, having undergone tests at the University of Navarra Clinic, which diagnosed a post-traumatic muscle injury with myofascial edema of the inner calf.
