Chelsea playing master this season, Cole Palmer is the first name checked on the match sheet by Enzo Maresca for each meeting. But before the shock against Arsenal in the race for the Champions League, bad news came to hit Stamford Bridge. Indeed, the English environment is not part of the team to face the Gunners after being injured in training on the eve of the match this Sunday.

If the nature of his injury was not revealed, his participation in the two games of the England team next week, facing Latvia and Albania in qualifying for the World Cup, is more than compromised. On the side of Chelsea, we hope to be able to see Cole Palmer come back for the meeting against Tottenham after the truce. “It was a very light training, that is why we think it does not matter. We still have to wait to have a diagnosis, and we hope he can come back after the international break ”said his coach, Enzo Maresca.
