Chelsea have confirmed defender Levi Colwill has undergone successful surgery after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
The 22-year-old reported back to Cobham for pre-season training on Monday before suffering the setback during training.
A statement from the club read: "Medical assessments confirmed surgery would be the required course of action.
"Levi will now begin his recovery and be supported by the club's medical department at Cobham during his rehabilitation phase."
Colwill featured 38 times across all competitions for Chelsea last season before then joining up with England for games against Andorra and Senegal once the 2024/25 campaign had finished.
He played 90 minutes during the 3-1 defeat to Senegal.
Colwill then flew to America for the Club World Cup with Chelsea, playing five games, including a 118-minute outing against Benfica, on their way to lifting the trophy.
The news arrives just hours after Tottenham confirmed James Maddison had ruptured his ACL during their pre-season clash against Newcastle.

Wishing you speedy recovery such things can happen to every player this is what make arteta useless and visionless better get better back up but what is he buying dead woods from chelsea if Saka or Saliba get injured the entire season is completely over for arsenal
you think that it's every player that goes injured and can be replaced easily. Why was Rodri not been replaced. or you think if Palmer get injury now Chelsea season isn't over?
