The striker of Atletico Madrid, Diego Costa, will undergo an operation Wednesday in Brazil and should be away for three months.
This occurs despite the player's participation in Sunday's match against Girona in the Spanish league, which ended in a draw for each goal.
Costa is suffering from foot discomfort and has tried to overcome it with painkillers.
Costa did not postpone the operation at the end of the season and should play Wednesday in Brazil.
Costa left Spain for Brazil Monday night with Rodrigo Lazare, his chief medical officer for 12 years.
The Marca newspaper revealed that the player had planted a nail in his comb and had caused discomfort to the player and that the solution had been found.
The surgery will prevent Costa from staying in action for up to three months, with his return scheduled for March, the report said.
The report says that it usually takes about eight weeks to recover, but considering the recurrence of the problem, it will reach three months and, in the worst case, will extend to four months.
The Spanish newspaper said Costa had missed 12 league games against Alaves, Valladolid, Espanyol, Sevilla, Levante, Wesca, Getafe, Real Betis, Real Madrid, Rayo Vallecano, Villarreal and Real Sociedad.
This comes in addition to the absence of Atletico's striker for all his matches in the King's Cup, with the exception of the final climbs of the ##################################################################################### 39, team, in addition to the price of the final of the Champions League.
The report concluded by anticipating that Costa would miss 20 matches for Atletico Madrid in the coming period.
