Chelsea’s Cole Palmer available for Leeds clash, confirms Maresca

 

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Cole Palmer is fit and available for selection against Leeds United.

The Blues are set to take on Leeds United at Elland Road on Wednesday.

Palmer was listed among the substitutes in Chelsea’s 1-1 home draw with Arsenal on Sunday.

Maresca mentioned that the midfielder could even start in the upcoming match.

“He (Palmer) is available. He was on the bench last game. With 10 players, it was more complicated for Cole because he needs to come back in terms of fitness condition. The idea is to give him some minutes until he can play 90 minutes.

“Everyone is fine. Romeo is still recovering. Dario, he was okay and started some sessions with us. He now needs to slow down a little bit. He will be out again, hopefully nothing important.”

Chelsea remain unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions.
