Frank Lampard offers worrying update on Ben Chilwell injury after Chelsea win vs Bournemouth

Chelsea caretaker manager has offered a worrying update on Ben Chilwell after the defender suffered a hamstring injury during the 3-1 win against Bournemouth. The Blues took an early lead after Conor Gallagher headed home from a brilliant N'Golo Kante cross.

The Cherries equalised just 10 minutes later through Matias Vina, with the home side well on top heading into half-time. Late goals from Benoit Badiashile and Joao Felix sealed all three points though, as Chelsea moved up to 11th in the Premier League table.

Wesley Fofana was left out of the matchday squad as a precaution after suffering from a hamstring issue prior to kick-off. "Fofana had a bit of an issue with his hamstring, yesterday travelling down, so it's more of a precaution on that one," Lampard said ahead of the win against Bournemouth.
