Chelsea Faces Injury Concerns Ahead of Leicester Match

Chelsea is facing a midfield crisis ahead of their match against Leicester City on Saturday, with key players Romeo Lavia, Moisés Caicedo, and Enzo Fernández uncertain for the game due to various injury and availability issues. Lavia missed Belgium's recent matches due to a hamstring complaint, while Caicedo and Fernández are returning from international duty just 48 hours before the game. Chelsea's coach Enzo Maresca, returning to Leicester after his promotion with the club, has expressed concern over injuries to several players, including Cole Palmer, who is a doubt due to a knee injury. Jadon Sancho, who has struggled with illness and injury, is also likely to miss out on playing time. The club emphasizes player welfare, maintaining communication with national teams to ensure the best care for their athletes. With multiple uncertainties in the squad, Chelsea's preparations for the match are fraught with challenges.
