Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata is targeting an immediate return to action despite hobbling off during his side's 1-0 defeat by Manchester City on Saturday, after the club decided to conduct their own tests on the player.
The Spain international pulled up with a hamstring injury at Stamford Bridge after just 35 minutes and an original MRI scan, carried out by the Spanish Football Federation at the Sanitas University Hospital of La Moraleja in Madrid, diagnosed 'a grade II myofascial injury in the hamstring muscles'.
It was thought such an injury could see the 24-year-old miss up to six matches in all competitions for Antonio Conte's side, with that type of strain typically keeping a player out of action for up to four weeks.
