Chelsea right wing-back Victor Moses has provided the latest update on the injury problem that has seen him ruled out of action for the Blues clash with Serie A side AS Roma this evening.
The 26-year-old winger hobbled off with a hamstring problem during the first half of the 2-1 disappointing loss at Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon and is expected to remain out for about a month.
His injury only adds to manager Antonio Conte’s injury worries at the moment, with midfield maestro N’Golo Kante and England international Danny Drinkwater still both out and Spaniard Alvaro Morata having just returned to full fitness after his recovery from his own hamstring problem.
Victor Moses took to social media to upload a picture of himself on the medical treatment table at Chelsea’s Cobham training base, saying: “Gutted to pick up an injury. Working hard to get fit and back on the pitch as soon as I can!Good luck to the boys tonight come on the Chels.”

The Nigerian is not expected to return to action for Chelsea until after the FIFA international break, which means that the manager Antonio Conte will have to settle for a replacement.
