Manager says Chelsea need ‘a few days’ to assess forwardPochettino refuses to blame patchy pitch in Chicago
Mauricio Pochettino said Chelsea needed to assess Christopher Nkunku after the forward limped off with a knee injury against Borussia Dortmund.
Nkunku was forced off during the first half of Chelsea’s 1-1 draw in Chicago and faces a fight to be fit for the start of the Premier League season. Pochettino, whose side host Liverpool on the opening weekend, is hoping the France international did not sustain any serious damage.
