"I can't give an exact timeframe on Marc, Liam Rosenior said in his pre-match press conference. He suffered a hamstring injury just before half-time in the Leeds game. It's a real shame because he's an outstanding player, and one of the best left-backs in the world."
"It's a shame not to have Marc available but we have Jorrel [Hato] and we have Malo [Gusto] who can play on that side, so we have really good players that can cover. Of course, the sooner Marc gets back, the better."
Marc Cucurella, Chelsea's £60 million left-back signing from Brighton, has been absent since suffering a hamstring injury during the Leeds United draw. He has missed subsequent matches including a 4-0 FA Cup victory over Hull City and a 1-1 draw with Burnley. Manager Liam Rosenior confirmed the injury occurred just before half-time in the Leeds game and cannot provide a specific return date. This marks Cucurella's second hamstring injury this season, having previously been sidelined around the festive period. Despite his absence, Rosenior expressed confidence in backup options Jorrel Hato and Malo Gusto to cover the left-back position.
