CONFIRMED: Crystal Palace loanee Loic Remy returns to Chelsea after suffering training ground injury

Crystal Palace have been hit by an injury blow to on-loan striker Loic Remy, who has returned to Chelsea for treatment on an ankle problem.

The 29-year-old France forward had joined the Eagles for the rest of the season ahead of the transfer deadline, but will not be able to feature for his new club in the short-term after suffering the injury during a training session on Monday.

A statement on Palace's official website confirmed Remy would be expected to be "out for a number of weeks", but "will be continually assessed during his rehabilitation", with the medical staff from both teams in contact over his progress.
