The Atletico Madrid forward has a problem with his foot but hopes to be fit for Nov 24

Diego Costa did not train on Tuesday with Atletico Madrid because of a foot injury which is keeping him from participating and he is a doubt for the club's next game, against Barcelona on Sat Nov 24 at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Atletico say that Costa is doing "alternative" training and physiotherapy while his foot heals.

Costa reappeared after missing games against Leganes and Borussia Dortmund but played 45 minutes against Athletic before going off at half-time.

With 11 days to go, Atletico are hopeful that Costa will be fit for the visit of Barca.
