Chelsea 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace was overshadowed by an injury to Malo Gusto who was forced off the field clutching his hamstring.

Manager Enzo Maresca post-game update only added to the uncertainty stating that Gusto has a muscle problem without providing further details.

The lack of clarity is frustrating for fans especially given Gusto history of injuries last season.

With the international break leaving a two-week gap before the next game supporters will be left wondering about the severity of the injury.

The situation mirrors that of Reece James who picked up an injury in preseason and has yet to make the bench in the Conference League.

Despite the upcoming break there is no clear indication of when either player will return to action.
