Chelsea Coach Mauricio Pochettino Confirms Hamstring Injury for Captain Reece James
In a setback for Chelsea, their captain, Reece James, has encountered a hamstring injury, as disclosed by coach Mauricio Pochettino. The English defender, already contending with injuries throughout the season, has been sidelined for multiple games.
James commenced the game against Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday but endured a brief 26-minute appearance before being substituted due to the hamstring issue. Unfortunately, this injury comes as another blow for the Chelsea academy graduate.
Regrettably, Chelsea faced a 2-0 defeat against Everton in their Premier League clash at Goodison Park on the same day.
Following the match, Pochettino expressed concern over James's recurring injury struggles, stating to BBC, "Reece James felt something in his hamstring. It's not so nice for him to suffer another injury. He is an important player for us."
The gravity of James's absence adds to the challenges faced by the Chelsea squad as they navigate the competitive season.
