As feared, the cost of the Cup at Atlético is not only reduced to the emotional hardship suffered, but the first medical tests show that there are also physical consequences. For now, Lookman and Sorloth are injured, being absent for the next two matches against Elche and Athletic and major doubts for the Champions League semi-finals against Arsenal next week.
He Nigerianprecisely replaced by the Norwegian, in the second half of Saturday’s final, He suffers from adductor edema that will keep him off the playing fields for at least this week.. A problem that may be even greater, since with Arsenal visiting the Metropolitano on Wednesday the 29th, the deadlines for his recovery are fairer. Hence, I am already working with the recoverers to try to arrive on time.
The number 9, for its part, will not be able to be used by Simeone in the next matches as a result of a concussion, also awaiting his evolution. Of course, it is expected that he can arrive on time for the match against the English team, which is also the great objective.
Waiting for Llorente
There is more optimism in the case of Llorentebecause in the absence of medical confirmation, it seems that his discomfort may simply be a consequence of the effort and load he carries on his legs. Nevertheless, He will also have a specific plan so that he does not go further.
