Chelsea have suffered a fresh injury blow ahead of their pre-season friendly tie with Bayer Leverkusen on Friday night.
This comes after the Blues confirmed in a post on Thursday that their defender Levi Colwill had undergone successful surgery to an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
Colwill had reported back to Cobham for pre-season at the start of this week.
But unfortunately the 22-year-old sustained the injury in training.
However, medical assessments confirmed that surgery would be the required course of action for the player.
