EPL: Chelsea suffer major injury blow ahead of Arsenal clash

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson will not join up with the Senegal squad this international break after undergoing minor surgery.

According to the Daily Mirror, Jackson has stayed back in London after the surgery on a minor wrist issue.

He is now an injury doubt for their next clash in the Premier League against Arsenal on October 21.

The 22-year-old has scored only three goals for the Blues since he arrived in the summer from Villarreal.

Jackson netted the fourth and final goal during Chelsea’s 4-1 victory over Burnley last weekend.
