There is an epidemic of injuries in the London "Chelsea" team.

Before the new "Premier" league round, Enzo Maresca revealed at the press conference that the team has significant problems with injuries.

The Italian apologized for being wrong about team leader Cole Palmer's health.

"Unfortunately, I was wrong, Cole will need another six weeks of rest. So, yes, that's an update on the situation,” said the "Chelsea" coach.

It is true that the English star should avoid surgery.

It was also revealed at the press conference that center-back Benoit Badiashile is also out of action until at least December. Meanwhile, Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez, and Pedro Neto's participation in the upcoming matches is uncertain.
