Chelsea defender Reece James has posted a short update on his recovery from surgery as next month's World Cup in Qatar approaches.
James hobbled off the pitch in the 2-0 victory over AC Milan earlier this month after suffering a knee injury. A few days later, the club confirmed that the 22-year-old would undergo a rehabilitation programme and is expected to be out for eight weeks.
The injury comes at possibly the worst time for Graham Potter and James. The Blues have seven games scheduled to take place ahead of the mid-season break for the World Cup in November, forcing Ruben Loftus-Cheek to take up the right wing-back position.
