Victim of a collision with his teammate Strahinja Pavlovic during a training session, AC Milan striker Alvaro Morata had to be taken to hospital due to head trauma.
In the space of 48 hours, Alvaro Morata will have experienced everything. AC Milan's second scorer this Tuesday during the Rossoneri's victory on Real Madrid's pitch as part of the 4th day of the Champions League, the Spanish international striker is now in a hospital bed . Indeed, while Paulo Fonseca's players began preparing for the Serie A match on the Cagliari pitch this Saturday, the 32-year-old did not emerge unscathed from contact with his teammate Strahinja Pavlovic, according to information from the transalpine press. If the Milanese club confirmed the incident, it did not specify the circumstances. “During the morning session, Alvaro Morata suffered significant head trauma during a collision during a confrontation,” the club announced a few hours after the incident. He was quickly taken to hospital, where the MRI came back negative. »
“Morata is better”, according to AC Milan
Nevertheless, AC Milan was reassuring regarding the state of health of its Spanish striker. “Alvaro Morata is better, but he will remain under observation in hospital, as the protocol requires in similar cases,” the Lombard team clarified in the rest of its press release. However, faced with such circumstances, the presence of the captain of the Spanish team, European champion last July on the Cagliari lawn this Saturday is very uncertain and a package for the native of Madrid could soon be announced. An almost indisputable starter in the eyes of Paulo Fonseca, Alvaro Morata has however only scored two goals with AC Milan since the start of the season. However, he will be significantly absent during this trip to Sardinia, which could allow the Rossoneri to once again achieve two victories in a row in the league, which has not happened since the end of September.
