Chelsea striker Armando Broja could be out for the rest of the season after rupturing the ACL in his right knee.
The 21-year-old requires surgery and faces a lengthy period of rehabilitation on the joint.
Broja, who has made 12 competitive appearances this season, sustained the injury in a 1-0 friendly defeat to Aston Villa in Abu Dhabi on Monday.
After he was stretchered off, head coach Graham Potter said: "It doesn't look positive at the moment, but it is too early to say.
"Fingers crossed, but it is an awkward one."
It is another injury blow for Chelsea, who had a raft of players out before the World Cup, and for Broja in his breakthrough season in the first team
