Frank Lampard has confirmed Benoît Badiashile's hamstring injury is a matter of "months rather than weeks" but hopes he won't miss any games because of the timing of the setback.
As football.london reported on Tuesday, the 22-year-old defender, who suffered a hamstring strain in training last week, is set for a spell on the sidelines. However, it's understood he could well be in line for a return before the 2023/24 season starts in August.
Lampard, who was speaking to the press ahead of Chelsea's penultimate Premier League game with Manchester United, has opened up on how much of a blow it is for the player himself. The interim Blues boss said: "It's a big blow for him. I'm really disappointed for him.
