On Sunday evening, a vital member of Chelsea’s midfield ranks set alarm bells screaming across the club’s fanbase.
This comes after he was sighted on crutches during the club’s most recent tour.
Who is the player in question? Chukwuemeka, Carney.
For those who may have missed it, Chelsea’s youngster Chukwuemeka made his debut earlier today against West Ham United in the Premier League.
The Blues were eventually defeated three goals to one, leaving them with just one point from a possible six to begin the new season.
And the aforementioned Chukwuemeka, making his second consecutive start, added to Pochettino and co’s terrible day by limping out of proceedings shortly after finding the net in terrific form.
Speaking to the media after the final whistle at the London Stadium, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho was asked about his midfielder’s health.

Pochettino, for his part, stayed mostly silent, just stating that Chukwuemeka will undergo medical testing on Monday:
However, a subsequent video of the former Aston Villa prospect that has recently emerged online will not instill confidence in the Chelsea faithful.
This follows Chukwuemeka’s appearance of being in severe discomfort while using a pair of crutches.
