Chelsea captain Reece James will miss Tuesday's Champions League last-16 second-leg clash against Paris St Germain after sustaining a hamstring injury, manager Liam Rosenior said on Monday, adding that the problem could be serious for the right back, Reuters reported. 

James, who last week signed a six-year contract extension tying him to his boyhood club until 2032, picked up the issue during Chelsea's 1-0 Premier League home defeat by Newcastle United on Saturday.

The 26-year-old England international did not take part in training ahead of the Stamford Bridge game, with Chelsea needing to overturn a 5-2 first-leg deficit against the reigning European champions, according to Reuters.
