Chelsea captain Reece James is scheduled to see a hamstring specialist today as Mauricio Pochettino faces an anxious wait to discover the extent of his captain’s injury.
James, who has a history of hamstring problems, limped off during the Blues’ 2-0 loss at Everton on Sunday.
James is expected to see an expert on Tuesday to determine the next course of action regarding his latest rehabilitation spell.
Part of the visit will see James’s injured hamstring scanned for a full diagnosis on the his latest setback.
But because the defender has a history of hamstring problems there is an understanding his recovery may not be completely straight forward.
