The London team "Chelsea," currently going through a difficult stage, will have to operate without their defensive pillar for some time.
"The Times" reports that for a while, the central defender Thiago Silva has dropped out of the lineup.
The Brazilian suffered an injury during Sunday's match against "Tottenham," and although more detailed conclusions are still awaited, the defender will miss at least a week of football.
It is likely that without T. Silva, "Chelsea" will also have to face the UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg against Dortmund's "Borussia."
