Thiago Almada has suffered a muscle injury and will be out of action for Atletico Madrid.
Almada played in Argentina’s 3-0 win against Venezuela in the World Cup qualifiers but missed Argentina’s 1-0 loss against Ecuador due to fitness issues. Atletico Madrid has stated that the Argentine has suffered a muscle injury to his right leg.
Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone spoke at a press conference on Friday and commented on Almada’s injury. Here is what he had to say:
“Thiago Almada? We’re losing an important player for our squad, adding to Baena… We have to live with what happens to us and that’s why we need to have a deep squad.”
