Chelsea dealt another injury blow as Chilwell faces lengthy layoff

 

The England international will not play again until 2022

Chelsea face a nervous wait to see if Ben Chilwell requires surgery on an anterior cruciate ligament injury that will sideline the defender for at least six weeks.

The England international suffered the injury during the first half of Tuesday’s Champions League thrashing of Juventus at Stamford Bridge.

Blues boss Thomas Tuchel confirmed Chilwell does not need to go under the knife straightaway, though that may change if the injury fails to recover sufficiently.
