Chelsea captain, Reece James on Thursday night, posted an update on his hamstring injury after successfully undergoing an operation on Thursday.
James suffered yet another hamstring injury during their 2-0 defeat against Everton earlier this month.
The defender has been plagued with hamstring problems throughout his career and as a result finally decided to go under the knife.
After his surgery, James posted an update about his condition while revealing that he has received more hate than support after picking up yet another knock.
The 24-year-old posted a photo of himself in the hospital bed on Instagram with the caption” “The footballing world knew I got injured but the procedure I would go down this time took slightly longer to figure out the best solution.
“I had surgery today to try fix my reoccurring hamstring issue, the recovery has started, both physically and mentally.
“Since this injury I’ve had a good amount of support but significantly more hate and negativity. Believe me I don’t wanna be injured, I’m happiest when I’m playing football.
“Thanks to the understanding people that support me despite the highs or the lows, it goes a long way. Stay well, Reece.”
