Chelsea’s medical staff has calculated that Frank Lampard will need three weeks to recover from his thigh injury. The 31-year-old midfielder sustained the knock during a training session with England.
Earlier reports suggested Lampard might be sidelined for up to eight weeks. The versatile midfielder returned home from Qatar on Friday, where the Three Lions are preparing for a friendly against Brazil, and the Chelsea medical staff revealed the injury is not as bad as first feared.
Lampard could miss a number of games including the top matches against Manchester City and Arsenal.
