Alvaro Morata has returned home after a brief but concerning hospitalization following a serious head injury sustained during training. The AC Milan striker was discharged from the Legnano hospital this morning, where he was admitted after a violent clash with teammate Strahinja Pavlovic. Initial scans, including a CT scan, showed no serious damage, allowing Morata to leave the hospital after a period of observation.
Morata, who recently scored a decisive goal against his former club Real Madrid in a thrilling Champions League match, expressed his gratitude on social media. “I’m already home! Thank you so much for your messages. Thanks to everyone at this wonderful club for always making us feel good. Forza Milan,” he wrote, reflecting his relief and appreciation for the support he received.
Although Morata will miss Milan’s upcoming match against Cagliari due to the injury, he has been included in Spain’s national team roster for their upcoming fixtures. Spain’s head coach, Luis de la Fuente, confirmed Morata’s status, stating, “He took a heavy hit but is doing well after the assessments. There is a protocol in these cases, and he should be able to play in the first match. If not, he will be ready for the second.”
Morata’s quick recovery is promising for both Milan and the Spanish national team as they prepare for crucial matches ahead. His experience and skills will be invaluable as he looks to contribute further once fully cleared to play.
