LONDON: Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed that talisman Cole Palmer will remain sidelined for another six weeks as he continues to recover from a groin injury.
Palmer, who has already missed two spells this season with the same issue, was rested by Maresca at the end of September in the hope that a short break would prevent a recurrence. While the manager initially suggested Palmer would return after the international break, recent assessments indicate his absence could stretch into late November - meaning Chelsea fans may have to wait until December to see him back in action.
“I was wrong,” Maresca admitted. “Unfortunately, he needs to be out for six more weeks. We try to protect Cole as much as we can. The most important thing is when he comes back, he is fully fit.
