Jose Mourinho was reported to be undergoing surgery today after suffering a fractured elbow just hours after leading Chelsea to victory over Manchester United.
The Blues boss was due to fly to Paris for the operation after a piece of bone came loose, according to Sky Sports.
The cause of the fracture remains a mystery, but Mourinho is understood to have had an old injury which may have been aggravated.
The 50-year-old Portuguese manager appeared to be fine during Chelsea’s 3-1 win against United at Stamford Bridge yesterday.
There was also no hint of the injury when he was honoured at the Football Writers’ Association Gala in London last night.
The win over United strengthened Chelsea’s Premier League campaign, moving them to within two points of leaders Arsenal.
