Chelsea head coach Graham Potter has provided an injury update on Raheem Sterling and Christian Pulisic following his side's 1-0 Premier League defeat against Manchester City on Thursday.



Sterling was substituted after just five minutes and could be seen holding his hamstring following a collision with Manchester City defender John Stones during the encounter on Thursday night at Stamford Bridge.

Pulisic, on the other hand, was also forced off after a crunching tackle from Stones on 22 minutes.

Speaking to beIN SPORTS after Chelsea’s defeat at Pep Guardiola’s side, Potter said: “Raheem felt the back of his leg when he did a backheel—a strange action, a strange sensation, so fingers crossed."
The Englishman then spoke to BBC Match of the Day and added: “It is too early to say with injuries."
“Raheem felt it within the first minute of the game. And then with Christian [Pulisic], we are hoping it’s not too serious.
