Ben Chilwell misses the World Cup and a good portion of the rest of the season

Ben Chilwell will definitely not go to the World Cup, and there is a big chance that he will miss a good part of the season, according to the British Sun.Uncertainty continues. The respected newspaper Telegraph writes that there is concern in the camps of Chelsea and England that the injury is serious. However, nothing is final yet. After the specialist examinations, Chilwell received the first result which was not something he wanted to hear – it seems that he had torn his hamstring muscle. A definitive diagnosis is expected on Friday.He complained after the game that he felt some kind of a rupture, at that moment when he felt unbearable pain. Mason Mount said after the game that it was excruciating to watch Chilwell writhe in pain. Graham Potter briefly commented that the chances of the English left-back finding himself in Qatar are “thin”.##NAJAVA_MECA_6778620##Chilwell left Stamford Bridge on crutches, which already indicated that the situation is not good, and if it officially turns out that the injury is of a more serious nature, national team coach Gareth Southgate will find himself in a serious problem. Admittedly, Potter will not be in a much better position either.A reminder, next Thursday, Southgate is expected to announce the list of 26 players, and he is already sweating because of the health status of Reece James, Kyle Walker and Kalvin Phillips.If Chilwell were to be written off, the only legitimate full-back left would be Luke Shaw. That could potentially push Tottenham’s Ryan Sessegnon to be a back-up option, or Leicester’s James Justin. There is also the option of Kieran Trippier replacing Shaw.Chilwell did not play a single minute at the EURO 2020 as he and Mount found themselves in isolation as both were found to have been in close contact with the then covid-infected Scotsman Billy Gilmour.🚨 Breaking News: #Chelsea still waiting on scan confirmation but there are real fears that Ben Chilwell’s hamstring injury is serious and could keep him out for longer than just the World Cup. #CFC [via @Matt_Law_DT] pic.twitter.com/dLFuf5Wsoa— BlueCenter (@BlueCenter_) November 3, 2022
