Chelsea have confirmed that defender Thiago Silva suffered knee ligament damage during the Sunday’s 2-0 defeat against Tottenham

The 38-year-old centre- back limped off just 19 minutes during the Sunday game and was immediately replaced by Wesley Fofana.

Chelsea, however, did not give an official timeframe on how long the injury will affect the defender, but reports claimed it could be as long as six weeks.

A Chelsea statement read:

“Having sustained a knee injury during the first half of Sunday’s match against Tottenham Hotspur, Thiago underwent further assessment and a scan on his return to the training centre on Monday.

“Scan results from those assessments have confirmed damage to Thiago’s knee ligaments and he will now work closely with the club’s medical department during his rehabilitation to return to action as soon as possible.”

A time frame of six weeks would rule Silva out of Chelsea’s crucial Champions League last-16 second leg against Borussia Dortmund and the Brazil defender would also be a doubt for the quarter-finals should the Blues get through.

As well as Fofana, Graham Potter’s side have Kalidou Koulibaly, Trevoh Chalobah and Benoit Badiashile as centre-back options – but the latter is not eligible to play in the Champions League.
