Chelsea begins the year 2025 with bad news in its squad. As the Blues face Crystal Palace tomorrow at 4 p.m. during the 20th day of the Premier League, they will have to do without Wesley Fofana, once again absent. Arriving in 2022, the French defender has only played 32 matches since his signing, not spared from injuries. A new blow was announced today at a press conference by Enzo Maresca for the former Saint-Etienne player.
Absent until end of season
Already absent from the Blues' rally in November due to knee pain, the French international (1 selection) came off in the 60th minute during Chelsea's 3-0 victory against Aston Villa on December 1. A suspicion of a hamstring strain had been raised and seemed to be more serious than expected according to his trainer's statement. “Unfortunately Wesley could be out until the end of the season. At first, we thought the injury would last 5 weeks but other tests were not reassuring. It's a huge loss for us but also for him who is very talented but is plagued by injuries. It must be mentally tough for him. »
