Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger will not feature again this season after undergoing successful knee surgery.
The Germany international limped out Chelsea’s 1-1 draw against Manchester United last Sunday, raising fears he will miss the remainder of the campaign.
Rudiger also hobbled off during the Blues’ 2-0 defeat at Liverpool earlier this month and questions have been raised as to whether he returned prematurely.
It was later confirmed he suffered a knee injury against the Red Devils, and Rudiger shared a picture on social media to update fans on his situation.
“What a pity I won’t be able to help my team during the last games of the season,” he wrote on Instagram. “But my knee surgery went well and I’m already positive again.”

Rudiger has been one of the club’s standout performers this season and his loss will prove a blow, with Chelsea still vying for a top-four finish and Europa League glory.
Maurizio Sarri’s men currently sit fourth with a two-point cushion over Arsenal, but the Blues have two tricky fixtures remaining – against Watford at home and Leicester away.
