Chelsea relieved with the news that Wesley Fofana's knee injury isn't as severe as first thought and the Frenchman could be back in action for the Blues by the end of the month

Chelsea have been boosted by the news that the injury to Wesley Fofana is not as severe as first feared, and the defender is likely to only be out for a month.

Fofana limped out of the Blues' 3-0 win over AC Milan on Wednesday evening and left Stamford Bright on crutches, fearing there could be a long lay-off for the centre-back.

However, a scan has revealed that the 21-year-old hasn't suffered any serious ligament tear and will now only miss around four weeks of action for Graham Potter's side.
