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.
