Chelsea Injury News And Expected Return Dates: Updates On Romeo Lavia, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall And 4 Others

Chelsea midfielder Romeo Lavia has missed the last four games with a hamstring problem.

Speaking just before Christmas, head coach Enzo Maresca said that the Belgian international is back out on the grass but he isn’t fit enough for selection:

“Romeo is still recovering. He’s much, much better. He’s on the pitch and working but he’s not ready for the next game.”

A return to the matchday squad this weekend cannot be ruled out with Lavia seemingly close to a comeback.

Expected Return Date – Saturday 4th January v Crystal Palace
