Frank Lampard has confirmed that Christian Pulisic is still struggling with a hamstring injury and will miss Chelsea’s clash with Sheffield United – but Kepa Arrizabalaga is available again after recovering from a shoulder problem.
Pulisic pulled up in Chelsea’s warm-up at Burnley last weekend and had to be replaced by Timo Werner in Lampard’s starting XI before also skipping the side’s win over Rennes on Wednesday evening.
The American suffered a similar injury after scoring in August’s FA Cup final and missed the start of this season as a consequence, meaning he has made just five appearances in all competitions for the Blues. (Metro)
