# Sarri hopes Morata injury isn’t serious

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri believes that the injury sustained by Álvaro Morata against MOL Vidi is not serious.

The Blues drew 2-2 with the Hungarian side on Thursday in their last Europa League group stage game, and the Spanish striker left the field just before half-time with a suspected knee injury.

Despite landing awkwardly and looking uncomfortable, Sarri quickly updated fans after the game, saying he is hopeful that the problem isn’t a major one. As reported by [West London Sport](https://www.westlondonsport.com/chelsea/chelsea-doctor-gives-initial-verdict-on-morata), Sarri said:

The first impression of the doctor is that it isn’t too bad. But we will have to check it tomorrow.
