Chelsea hit by Estevao injury blow as Liam Rosenior reveals extent of hamstring issue

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior has confirmed the reason behind Estevao's absence from their game against Burnley.

The Brazilian sits out the visit of the Clarets due to a hamstring complaint, though the Blues boss has allayed fears the teenage winger has suffered a serious injury.

"Unfortunately yesterday in the training session, he felt awareness in his hamstring," Rosenior said on Saturday.

"At the moment we are scanning it to make sure it’s nothing too serious but he’s unavailable for today’s game and we will see from there."

Chelsea are looking to extend their Premier League unbeaten run to six games as they seek a return to winning ways following their 2-2 draw with Leeds last week.
