Chelsea boss Pochettino hopeful over Chalobah injury

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is hopeful of Trevoh Chalobah's injury not being serious.

The defender was forced off after just 15 minutes into their preseason friendly win over Fulham on Sunday.

Pochettino said post-match: "I hope it's not a big issue, but now, we need to assess.

"It doesn't mean it is big. It was a precaution but we need to assess him the next few days.

"We don't believe it is big but hope also."
