Koke's season is off to a rough start.
On Sunday, Atletico Madrid revealed the extent of the knock that forced the Spanish midfielder to leave the pitch in the 61st minute of the club's 2-0 victory at Eibar, announcing that he suffered a Grade 1-2 hamstring injury.
Early indications are that Koke will miss Atleti's La Liga fixture versus Getafe on Tuesday, and it is expected he will try and make himself available for the club's subsequent match Saturday at Villarreal, according to AS.
Through five La Liga games, Koke has scored one goal and is still in search of his first assist.
