The epic comeback against Betis has had a significant cost for Celta. And it's Hugo Álvarez ended the match with discomfort in the knee, and the club's doctors have confirmed that it is a sprain in the medial collateral ligament of the right knee, so he will not be available for Saturday's match against Atlético de Madrid at the Metropolitano.
The Ourense full-back is waiting to undergo an MRI to determine the exact extent of the injury. Depending on the grade of the sprain, the recovery time will vary considerably. However, it seems unlikely that Hugo Álvarez will return to the field this February. He will miss, for sure, the clash against Atlético and, most likely, the matches against Osasuna and Girona.
