It was revealed that Chelsea will miss more players against Brighton’s players at a pre-match press conference for Enzo Maresca.
Before the FA Cup fixture, Chelsea vs. Brighton has revealed that more Blues players have suffered new injuries ahead of the highly anticipated game.
It was revealed that a total of 13 players are expected to miss Chelsea vs Brighton FA Cup due to one injury or another. Enzo Maresca said in a pre-match press conference that Chelsea has received more bad news on the injury as two major players are now on the long-term injury roster.
It was revealed that Nicholas Jackson and Marc Guiu both missed the game against Brighton due to injury.
Enzo, who discussed the extent of Marc Guiu’s injury, revealed that the newly signed youngster is expected to be eliminated for a while in a match against West Ham on Monday.
When asked how long Mark is expected to remain, if he can confirm his return date, Enzo revealed, “No, because we’re still waiting. It won’t look short, it looks like a long hurt. We don’t know how long. Probably a few weeks or months.”
Nicholas Jackson’s injury update
The team suffered a double setback in Chelsea’s 2-1 win over West Ham earlier this week as two of their forwards were injured. Both Nicolas Jackson and Marc Guiu were forced to leave at different moments of the game, raising concerns about the depth of Chelsea’s offensive.
After a clumsy fall, Jackson seemed to have grabbed the hamstring injury in the fixture, and Guiu seemed to have persisted groin or knee problems during an offensive move in downtime. Chelsea has removed some offensive options including Joao Felix in the transfer window, and the squad will now face a shortage of shooters if any player is eliminated for a long time.
Speaking of this Enzo shows that Jackson’s injury is not an injury that has kept him off the court for a long time and is expected to return soon.
He said “Unfortunately, Mark wasn’t well injured. Nico was better. Probably. It could be. It could be a risk, but we’ll see. But doesn’t it look long?”
Enzo Maresca confirmed that other players like Romeo Lavia, Wesley Fofana are still more left, even though they are slowing down work hard to restore adaptability.
