"With Reece, he felt something in his hamstring at the end of the game against Newcastle [United]. Really disappointing. We don't know the full extent, but it rules him out for tomorrow's game. It could be [weeks]. With a hamstring injury, it is never great. Hopefully, we can get him scanned, know the full extent, and go from there."
"James played the duration of Chelsea's 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United, but has since been ruled out of their Champions League last 16 second leg against Paris Saint-Germain. The Blues trail the defending European champions 5-2 ahead of Tuesday's clash, and they are also winless in their last five Champions League games against PSG."
Chelsea captain Reece James suffered a hamstring injury during the Newcastle United match and has been ruled out for the Champions League last 16 second leg against Paris Saint-Germain. Manager Liam Rosenior confirmed James felt the injury at the end of the Newcastle game and will undergo scans to determine the full extent, potentially sidelining him for weeks. Chelsea already trail PSG 5-2 from the first leg and face additional challenges with right-back Malo Gusto unavailable through illness. The Blues are winless in their last five Champions League matches against PSG and have lost their last three knockout stage games in the competition.
