Reece James will miss the rest of the season, Chelsea interim boss Frank Lampard has confirmed.
He also confirms that Mason Mount is "unlikely" to feature in the final seven games.
"Reece James will be unavailable for the rest of the season, Mason Mount the same," said Lampard.
"Reece had a hamstring injury in the midweek game," added Lampard.
"He got through it but then had a scan and he's out.
"Mason has been carrying a pelvic injury for a while.
"It predates myself and he has been trying typically but he will have minor surgery, then a four-week recovery.
"He [Mount] might make the last match but that's unlikely, which is obviously disappointing for us."
This comes as a huge blow to Chelsea who are billed to face Brentford at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday and are looking to end the season on a strong note.
