Alvaro Morata's wife Alice Campello has landed herself in it after posting a dance video featuring the injured Chelsea star, who is supposedly nursing a back injury likely to keep him "out for the season."

A frustrated Antonio Conte revealed on Friday that his talisman will be lucky to play again this term as a niggling back injury persists with the Spanish international.

He will surely want Morata doing everything he can to back onto the pitch as soon as possible then, with his position as Blues boss looking more delicate as the weeks pass by.

The former Real Madrid ace has missed Chelsea's last five games, but appeared in decent shape in the video shared by Campello on Sunday.

His side host West Brom on Monday night after consecutive defeats to Bournemouth and Watford and are notably struggling in his absence - losing three of five without him.

Prior to his injury, the 25-year-old had netted 10 goals in 20 Premier League appearances and despite being far from prolific, certainly improved the balance of the defending champions' squad.

Morata will surely be irked by his other half's decision to post the video on Instagram and is now receiving the backlash from a number of fans; feeling the player should be doing everything he can to return, and to certainly avoiding anything that could aggravate his injury.

Campello obviously realised she'd put her foot in it pretty quickly and removed the video after the response on Sunday evening.
