Chelsea are still waiting to learn the severity of Wesley Fofana’s injury, but the defender faces “some weeks” out.
The centre-back limped off after an hour in the win over Aston Villa on Sunday, with Enzo Maresca suggesting after the match that Fofana could miss as many as a dozen matches.
There is not yet a firm timeline for the Frenchman’s return, though, with Chelsea expecting to learn more later this week.
“We don’t have any update at the moment in terms of it happened two days ago, we have to wait a bit,” Maresca said at a press conference on Tuesday ahead of his side’s trip to face Southampton.
“Hopefully we can get some more news in the next few days but for sure he will be out for some weeks.”
