Romeo Lavia is set for yet another spell on the sidelines with a new injury.

Lavia was forced off in Chelsea’s recent Champions League Qarabag with a quadriceps muscle injury.

After several tests, multiple reliable Chelsea sources have revealed he will miss at least one month of matches.

The Belgian is set to miss at least the following matches: Burnley, Arsenal, Barcelona, Leeds, Bournemouth and Atalanta.

Chelsea staff will not rush him back and there is a chance he could be out for even longer.

The earliest predicted date for more Lavia minutes is the 13th December when Chelsea host Everton at Stamford Bridge.
