James has been one of his side’s best performers over the last couple of seasons and has started the current campaign in fine form once again.
On Saturday, the England international was only deemed fit enough to start on the bench when the Blues took on Wolves in the Premier League.
He returned to the starting line-up for Tuesday’s showdown with Milan and caused the home defence all sorts of problems as he darted forward and attempted to make things happen. But he was forced off on the hour mark after landing heavily on his right leg.
With the start of the World Cup less than six weeks away, there are now doubts over whether the 22-year-old will be fit enough to take his place in the Three Lions squad.
Gareth Southgate has named James in his starting line-up for England’s last four matches and clearly thinks a lot of the player.
