Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma will miss the rest of the season and Euro 2016 with a knee injury. Zouma got injured last Sunday's draw at home to Manchester United.

"Kurt will undergo surgery in the next 48 hours and is expected to be out for approximately six months," reads a statement on the club's website.

Zouma landed awkwardly early in the second half of the drawn Premier League contest and was carried off on a stretcher.
