Juventus face a nervous wait as striker Alvaro Morata will require further tests to determine the extent of an injury.
The Spaniard picked up the knock during his country’s 4-0 win over Luxenbourg which sealed their qualification for Euro 2016.
Morata took to twitter, though, to deny reports that he will be out for four months.
Ni un mes ni cuatro… Trabajando a tope para estar listo el domingo!!! #FinoAllaFine #ForzaJuve pic.twitter.com/n0W8uW9VqQ

“Not one month, and not four, I am working hard to be ready for Sunday.”
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Morata has now returned to Turin and will undergo tests to confirm the nature of the injury.
As a result, Morata will not take part in Spain’s final European Championship qualifier against Ukraine on Monday.
Juventus face rivals Inter in their next match on October 18 and coach Massimiliano Allegri will be desperate to have his star striker available for selection.
