DBasia.news – Happiness turned to misery for Wesley Fofana in his fourth game for Chelsea. He briefly gave the Blues the lead against AC Milan with his first goal for his new club and second in English football, but then burst into tears due to a knee injury less than a quarter of an hour later.
On his Instagram, he posted a photo of himself celebrating a goal with the caption: “From laughter to tears. I’ll be back stronger soon. That’s for sure.”
After the game, manager Graham Potter was concerned about the potential severity of the injury. He said: “We need to scan, and hope [not severe].
“I don’t want to speculate right now, but we are worried, and we will have to wait for tomorrow, scan the injury and hope for the best.”
Hopes of getting into France’s World Cup squad will likely evaporate with his injury. Even if it’s not as bad as feared, Fofana will still have to fight for playing time before Didier Deschamps picks his squad for Qatar.
