Chelsea find themselves in a bit of a predicament after an injury to Ben Chilwell.
Yesterday it was confirmed that Chilwell will be going for surgery on his ACL injury sustained against Juventus in the Champions League, meaning Chelsea will be without their top performing left wing back for the rest of the season.

It’s a massive blow for the player and for the club, but attentions must now turn towards who will be replacing the England international for the rest of the season, with only Marcos Alonso left as a recognised left wing back in the squad.
Lucas Digne is the name on the lips of the majority, and French outlet L’Equipe have given their take on this potential move, as cited by Sport Witness today.
They say that Chelsea are ‘very interested’ in Digne and see him as their ‘priority’ for January, with a ‘loan move being mentioned’ by the clubs.
