John Terry Out For 10 Days Due To injury

September 14, 2016

Chelsea captain, John Terry, has been ruled out of playing for 10 days after he suffered an injury to his ankle during Sunday’s match against Swansea City. 

This will mean that the 35-year old will now miss matches against Liverpool and Leicester City. 

Terry addressed the news of his injury on his Instagram account, saying that he had injured his ligaments in his ankle and that he is very upset about not being able to play for 10 days:

“…I have strained my ligaments in my ankle which means I will be out for 10 days…Absolutely gutted, but will be giving everything to get back playing [sic],” he said on the social media platform.

He had sprained the ligaments in his left ankle during the match against Swansea, but continued playing even though he was in pain.

“…Our captain was injured in the closing minutes of the 2-2 draw at the Liberty Stadium. He completed the game in pain and Antonio Conte confirmed afterwards the problem would need medical assessment,” a statement released by the club read.
