Cole Palmer Uncertain for Arsenal Match Due to Injury

Cole Palmer is a doubt for Chelsea's upcoming Premier League match against Arsenal following a knee injury sustained from a tackle by Lisandro Martinez during Chelsea's recent draw with Manchester United. Manager Enzo Maresca confirmed Palmer has not trained since the incident, raising concerns about his fitness ahead of the match. Maresca expressed frustration over the referee's decision not to issue a red card to Martinez for the challenge, which he deemed unacceptable. The club has arranged for a precautionary scan, but results are still pending. If Palmer is unable to play, Joao Felix could be given an opportunity in the starting lineup, as he has yet to start in the Premier League since rejoining the club. Jadon Sancho is also unavailable due to injury, further complicating Chelsea's attacking options.
