Maresca says Chelsea must find a solution without palmer and confirms the arrival of Garnacho
The boss of Chelsea, Enzo Maresca, thinks that the club must learn to play without Cole Palmer after confirming that he will not be available for the shock against Fulham on Saturday.
The blues face their rivals from western London during early kick-off, Maresca’s men seeking to capitalize on a 5-1 victory against West Ham last Friday.
Palmer did not appear in this match after stopping with an injury in the warm -up, and will sit again this weekend – to the great misery of the fantastic first league players throughout the country.
Speaking at her press conference, Maresca said: “Cole, we have to see day after day. Romeo and Benoit – I don’t think they will be back after the international break but they will be closer.
“Two years ago, he [Lavia] did not play any game. Last year, he played a few games. The target is to give him more games this season. I don’t know [when he will be back]. “”
“When Cole is not in the game, we have to find different solutions. I hope that tomorrow we can do the same.”
Following his problem, Palmer was also excluded from the England team of Thomas Tuchel.
On this point, Maresca added: “I spoke to Thomas several times. This is Thomas’ decision. He is not available tomorrow, so it is completely normal that he has shown that he had problems.
Garnacho ad
The Maresca conference also came shortly after it was revealed that Alejandro Garnacho should sign for the London Club of Manchester United.
And although this agreement was not officially announced, the boss of Chelsea could not retain his excitement from the finish.
“I know he’s here,” he said.
“It is quite clear that his position is a winger and I see him as a winger.”
“You can expect something with the open transfer window – anything can happen outside.
“I joined the club a year ago saying that I was in love with the team and it improved. The feeling is the same. “
