Lampard update on Pulisic's injury ahead of Rennes

Chelsea head coach confirmed at his pre-match press conference that the forward hasn’t suffered a serious injury, although will sit out tomorrow’s Champions League tie with Rennes, and offered an update via Zoom to the media. ‘Christian had a scan yesterday, which showed a very minor injury to his hamstring,’ Lampard stated.

‘It’s very minor, which is good, and he’s already back outside. He won’t be fit for tomorrow’s game but we will see after that. ‘It’s a relief for the injury to be on the small side, of course, and it felt that way to Christian. He made the right decision to pull out against Burnley.
