Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Bournemouth

:Headline: Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Bournemouth:
Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Bournemouth.
Sports Mole

Chelsea will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they travel to Bournemouth on Sunday afternoon.

The Blues entered the international break off the back of a 1-0 home loss to Nottingham Forest, which made it two defeats from their first four league games of the season.

Mauricio Pochettino's side have picked up four points thus far, which has left them down in 12th position in the table ahead of their clash with the Cherries.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Bournemouth, who are yet to taste victory in the league this term.


Reece James

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: Unknown

Chelsea captain James is in the latter stages of his recovery from a hamstring issue, but this match will come too soon for the England international.


Christopher Nkunku

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Nkunku is still in the treatment room continuing his recovery from a serious knee injury, with the attacker unlikely to be available for selection until the end of the year.


Benoit Badiashile

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: September 17 (vs. Bournemouth)

Badiashile could be in the squad for the clash with Bournemouth, with the centre-back making excellent progress in his recovery from a hamstring issue.


Wesley Fofana

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Fofana is on the sidelines recovering from an ACL injury, and there are fears that the centre-back will be unavailable for selection for the entire season.


Trevoh Chalobah

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: September 17 (vs. Bournemouth)

Chalobah came close to leaving Chelsea before the transfer deadline, but he remained at Stamford Bridge, and the centre-back could be available for the contest with Bournemouth.


Carney Chukwuemeka

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Chukwuemeka was forced off with a knee injury in the recent clash with West Ham United, which could keep the midfielder on the sidelines until the latter stages of October.


Armando Broja

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: September 17 (vs. Bournemouth)

Broja is closing in on a return from a long-term knee injury, with the striker potentially making the bench for Chelsea's next match.


Romeo Lavia

Status: Out
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: Unknown

Lavia is yet to make his Chelsea debut due to an ankle injury, and the midfielder could potentially be out for another six weeks or so with the issue.


Marcus Bettinelli

Status: Out
Type of injury: Unspecified
Possible return date: Unknown

Bettinelli is yet to feature this season due to an unspecified injury, and it is still unclear when the goalkeeper will be available for selection once again.
