Chelsea injury news and return dates ahead of Newcastle cup tie……
The most recent injury news for Chelsea involves Mauricio Pochettino dealing with multiple fitness concerns ahead of their match against Newcastle.
Mauricio Pochettino will be hoping that Christopher Nkunku is fit to play in tonight’s Carabao Cup match between Chelsea and Newcastle. The Blues defeated Sheffield United at Stamford Bridge on Saturday in the Premier League, advancing them to the quarterfinal match.
Although the France international was included in the matchday roster for the match against the Blades, Pochettino decided against using him off the bench. Romeo Lavia and Nkunku resumed training at the same time last month, suggesting that Nkunku may soon be joining him.
Pochettino disclosed the length of Robert Sanchez’s potential absence from action when he added him to the injury list in another place. Having said that, football.london has examined the most recent Chelsea injury updates prior to their visit to Stamford Bridge by Newcastle.
Roberto Sanchez
Despite sustaining a knee injury in the loss to Manchester United, the goalie was cleared to play against Everton. But after hurting himself in the second half, Sanchez made his injury worse and had to be replaced by Djordje Petrovic.
“I think when you suffer an injury and he was our No. 1 goalkeeper so far, always a player you are going to miss,” stated Pochettino. We have another goalie, I believe, who is putting in a lot of effort to be prepared for situations like this.
“It’s an injury that will likely last for a few weeks—possibly two, three, four, five, or six. We will evaluate it daily to determine how to adhere to it. We hope he returns as soon as possible, but his recovery will depend on him and how his knee responds. It is difficult to predict whether he will be back in two or three weeks.”
