Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has hinted Chelsea right-back Malo Gusto suffered a bad injury in Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Fulham on Sunday afternoon.

Asked for an update on the Frenchman, Maresca praised his performance but was clearly worried about his injury, with just a handful of games in the season to go.

“Not a good one. Unfortunately it looks like a muscular injury,” Maresca said in his post-match press conference.

“We started well in the first 20 minutes then we conceded a goal unfortunately and in a match that is must win, it’s not easy for the players,’ he told BBC Match of the Day.

“It becomes more difficult but second-half, we also changed something tactically and it was much better. We were a little bit more dynamic with Malo Gusto inside.

“He is doing this fantastically for us since day one and second half we were much better.”
