Chelsea have suffered a major blow as their captain Reece James is set to be sidelined with a hamstring injury.

The Blues are set to face off against PSG in the second leg at Stamford Bridge as they try to overcome a 5-2 deficit this evening. They are also in the top 4 contention, and now all those have hit a major setback as Reece James is set to be out for an extended period of time. The England international just extended his contract at Chelsea up until 2032 and featured for the full 90 minutes against Newcastle.

Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior confirmed the injury during his press conference on Tuesday. “With a hamstring injury, it’s never great. And for Reece, hopefully we can just get him scanned; we can find out the full extent, and then we’ll know more. Because obviously we know what an important player he is and what an important leader he is in the group.” He said.
