EPL: Maresca updates on two key Chelsea players ahead of Southampton clash

Chelsea boss, Enzo Maresca has provided an injury update on Reece James and Wesley Fofana ahead of the Blues’ Premier League clash with Southampton on Wednesday.

Recall that Fofana was forced off in the 60th minute during Chelsea’s Premier League 3-0 win against Aston Villa over the weekend.

He appeared to suffer an injury on his hamstring.

James, on the other hand, has been battling a similar injury since the international break.

When asked about Fofana, Maresca said at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday: “We don’t have any update at the moment. It happened two days ago so we need to wait a little bit. We are hoping to get some more news in the next few days but for sure, he will be out for the next weeks.”

On James, he added, “He’s in the same situation, more or less. He’s getting better but he still needs weeks to come back.”
