The 24-year-old was already set to miss the opening three fixtures of the 2024/25 Premier League season due to suspension.

However, this injury means he could be a doubt for Chelsea’s two-legged UEFA Conference League play-off in late August.

The report continues to claim the club will not rush his recovery with 14 September deemed a potential return date when the Blues face Bournemouth.
