Isaac Success' Injury Is Long Term, Will Not Face Chelsea
Published: October 20, 2017
Isaac Success won't make the short trip to Fulham for Watford's Premier League tie at Stamford Bridge against champions Chelsea as he is still recovering from a knee injury.
Manager of the Golden Boys, Marco Silva, does not expect the striker to return to action before the end of this month, saying the striker's injury is 'long-term'.
''It's the same situation as last week,'' Silva said at Thursday's press conference.
''Cathcart, Chalobah and Isaac [Success] are long-term. Kaboul and Sebastian [Prödl] are still out of the match.
''We expect them to work with the team the next week. Maybe not full training, but certainly with the team. It's too early to say with Chalobah.''
Success has yet to make a single appearance in the Premier League this term after eight rounds.
There won't be any Nigerian involvement at Stamford Bridge tomorrow, as Chelsea's Super Eagles star Victor Moses is still treating a hamstring injury.
