"Reece, he's felt something in his hamstring at the end of the Newcastle game. We don't know the full extent of the injury, but he will be out for tomorrow's game. It could be [serious]. With a hamstring injury, it's never great. Hopefully we can get him scanned and find out the full extent."
"James signed a new six-year contract at Stamford Bridge last week, having enjoyed an excellent season in which he displayed his value both at right-back and as a midfielder. The England international has scored twice and provided six assists in all competitions for the Blues."
"James' absence could hardly have come at a worse time for the Blues. In addition to trying to keep their European season alive, the Blues are still in the FA Cup and face a battle with Liverpool and Aston Villa for a place in next season's Champions League."
Chelsea captain Reece James sustained a hamstring injury in the closing stages of the Newcastle United match and is set for an extended absence. Manager Liam Rosenior confirmed James will miss the upcoming Champions League fixture against Paris Saint-Germain and potentially several weeks of action. The 26-year-old England international has been a key performer this season, contributing two goals and six assists across all competitions. His absence comes at a particularly challenging time as Chelsea attempts to overturn a deficit in their Champions League last-16 tie, compete in the FA Cup, and maintain their pursuit of a top-four Premier League finish. James' injury history has previously disrupted his career, and this latest setback threatens Chelsea's prospects across multiple competitions.
