Chelsea have been hit by another injury blow after it was revealed that Noni Madueke is set to be out until the international break in March.
The 22-year-old winger suffered a hamstring injury in the Blues 3-0 defeat by Brighton in the Premier League last week.
The disappointing performance at the American Express Stadium has dropped Chelsea to sixth place in the standings amid their attempt to qualify to the Champions League next season.
According to The Telegraph, while the exact missing dates are yet to be confirmed, it is understood that the Englishman will be absent at least until the international break, missing crucial games against Aston Villa and Southampton.
