The worst fears of Atletico Madrid fans have come true after Diego Costa limped off against Juventus in Stockholm in their International Champions Cup fixture on Saturday.
Scans have shown that an injury to his left thigh will keep him out for 10 to 15 days.
Costa has suspended for the first game of the LaLiga season against Getafe anyway but would have been available for the visit to Leganes on matchday two.
This injury puts that return in doubt and comes as an unexpected inconvenience for Diego Simeone, who was already without the Spain international on seven separate occasions due to injury last season.
