Reece James (Chelsea), who has been suffering from a hamstring injury for several seasons, has been injured again. Coach Enzo Maresca (aged 44) of Italy announced the news of James' injury and said that he will not be able to play in the upcoming match against Leicester City.
"There is one player who has definitely been injured, and it is James. Unfortunately, it is a hamstring problem. We have decided not to take risks," Maresca told a press conference ahead of the 12th round match of the English Premier League in the 2024-25 season against Leicester City.
James, who started the season late due to his hamstring injury, is back from the team's roster. James returned from a hamstring injury last month and played four games. He had been improving his physical condition during the A-match break, but felt pain again ahead of the match against Leicester City. Maresca has decided not to use James to prevent his injury.
James, once regarded as one of the top right-backs in the Premier League, is losing his value due to a series of injuries. He was competing with Trent Alexander-Arnold (26, Liverpool) for the right-back position for England, but was eliminated from the World Cup and UEFA Euro list due to his injury. He even underwent surgery to resolve his hamstring problem, but it did not have much effect.
James has missed 680 days of his career with injuries. Mostly hamstrings have caused problems. In the 2022-23 season, he suffered six injuries with large and small hamstring injuries, and last season, he underwent surgery and was off the field for 205 days. In four of the last six seasons, he has not played in more than 20 games with injuries.
James and Chelsea are under contract until 2028. James has grown up in the Chelsea youth system and is receiving the highest weekly wage in the team due to his outstanding skills. James is known to earn 250,000 pounds a week. However, Chelsea is suffering from difficulties in maintaining the quality of their matches, which is making her heart burn.
"This message is for those who understand and respect what I am going through. Thank you very much for your support and kind messages," James said on social media on Sunday. "And those messages touched my heart. It got worse as it got better." 온라인바카라
"Another challenge has been accepted. Despite all these hardships, we will overcome them in the end," he wrote. "Lastly, it's a tough time for all of us, but I hope we all have a happy, peaceful Christmas and New Year."
