More injury heartbreak for Blues midfielder

In May of last year, Chelsea headed off to the USA for an end of season charity friendly against New England Revolution. It was to be a bitter end to the season for Ruben Loftus-Cheek. An Achilles tendon injury sustained in the game meant he would miss any chance of playing in the Europa League Final against Arsenal.

Loftus-Cheek had played a huge part in helping the Blues get to Baku, and still collected a winners medal, but even so it was a huge disappointment for the 24-year-old.

This season has seen setbacks in his rehabilitation, and it’s only recently he’s seen any real action. Overall he has managed nine-appearances in all competitions.

Now bad luck has struck again. Frank Lampard has confirmed the England international is struggling with a knock, and is out of tomorrow’s FA Cup Final clash with Arsenal.

letd all wish Ruben a swift recovery, and hope to see him fully fit and firing the Blues to future success.
