Álvaro Morata Hospitalized After Cranial Injury During Training
The Spanish footballer is currently hospitalized in Milan, Italy
In a development that has sent shockwaves through the football community, Spanish forward Álvaro Morata is currently hospitalized in Milan after suffering a significant blow to the head. According to Telecinco, the footballer sustained cranial trauma during a recent training session. Reports indicate that Morata collided with his teammate Strahinja Pavlovic midway through practice, resulting in a serious head injury that required immediate medical attention.
Upon his arrival at Legnano Hospital, Morata underwent an MRI to determine whether he had sustained any serious internal injuries. Fortunately, according to the initial report, the scan results came back negative for internal damage. However, out of an abundance of caution, the medical team has decided to keep Morata under observation overnight. He will continue to receive care at the hospital to monitor his condition and ensure his safety.
As a result of the injury, Morata will be unable to participate in the upcoming match against Cagliari. Team officials have decided it would be best for him to sit out, both as a precautionary measure and while awaiting further test results. Missing the match is considered the safest course of action to support his recovery and avoid any additional risk.
Beyond the immediate match, Morata’s status remains uncertain for the national team. It is still too early to know if he will be selected by Luis de la Fuente for Spain’s upcoming Nations League fixtures. These crucial matches against Denmark and Switzerland are fast approaching, and Morata’s availability will depend on his recovery over the next few days and the medical team’s final assessment.
