Painful loss of "Chelsea": due to a tendon injury, B. Chilwell will not play for at least 6 weeks © PA

London's "Chelsea" are at least without Ben Chilwell for a few weeks, and possibly for the rest of the season, who has been in excellent form recently. In the match against "Juventus," the left-back suffered a serious knee injury. This information was confirmed at a press conference by "Chelsea" coach Thomas Tuchel: "Ben partially injured his ACL and the decision is to treat it conservatively. The next few weeks will tell whether he will be ready to play after that time, or if he will need surgery."

"At the moment, I am only concerned about these upcoming weeks, we are looking at everything positively, as his initial body reaction was very good," said the "Chelsea" strategist. In Sunday's match against "the aristocrats" against "Man Utd," N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic will also not be able to play, but their injuries are less severe.
