Ruben Loftus-Cheek has shared tips on battling injuries with tennis star Andy Murray.
Chelsea’s resurgent midfielder Loftus-Cheek — a tennis fan — and Murray have both experienced the frustration of injury hampering their careers.
Loftus-Cheek said: ‘I went to see Andy train and play at Surbiton in the summer. I’m a big fan of tennis.
‘We had a chat and it was good to see how he sees himself and his career and the injuries that hindered him through it. He had a big one with the hip that he still struggles with a bit so it was good to compare careers.
