London Chelsea newcomer Christopher Nkunku may miss the start of the season.
Let's remember that the London club striker suffered a knee injury in a friendly match with "Borussia" (1:1).
Reports have been in the press that the player may need surgery, but Chelsea has yet to confirm that information. The Blues are expected to provide official information on Nkunku's condition shortly.
As reported by The Telegraph, Christopher has been sidelined for a more extended period than initially thought. The player has been diagnosed with a meniscus problem that could keep him out for over two months.
Nkunku joined Chelsea this summer. "Leipzig" received more than 60 million euros for the transfer of the Frenchman. The football player's contract with the London club is for 6 years.
