Chelsea Football Club has officially announced that Carney Chukwuemeka and Trevoh Chalobah will not be available for the much-anticipated Premier League fixture against Arsenal on Saturday.
The duo, both instrumental players for the club, have unfortunately encountered setbacks in their recovery from respective injuries.
A spokesperson for the club delivered the news, stating, “Regrettably, defender Trevoh Chalobah and midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka have experienced recent obstacles in their journey to regain full fitness after sustaining injuries earlier in the season.”
The spokesperson further explained that the players will undergo further assessment and treatment by the accomplished medical team at Cobham, Chelsea’s training ground.
Chukwuemeka, who sustained a knee injury during the clash against West Ham, has been unable to feature in any matches since then.
As for Chalobah, the talented defender has yet to make an appearance this season as he continues his rehabilitation from a thigh injury.
The absence of these two key players will undoubtedly be felt by the team as they prepare to face Arsenal, one of their most formidable rivals.
Chelsea’s manager and the coaching staff can now work on alternative tactics and select the best lineup to counter their opponents on Saturday.
Supporters eagerly await news of the duo’s progress and anticipate their swift return to the pitch.
