Chelsea Boss Maresca Confirms Palmer Out for Two to Three Weeks With Injury

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Cole Palmer will be sidelined for up to three weeks as he recovers from injury. The decision means the midfielder will miss several key fixtures as the Blues navigate a demanding part of their schedule.

Maresca explained that the club is prioritizing Palmer’s full recovery to avoid the risk of a longer-term setback. “Cole needs time to heal properly, so we’ll give him two to three weeks to rest and return stronger,” the coach said.

Palmer has been one of Chelsea’s standout performers this season, playing a central role in the team’s attacking setup. His absence will test the squad’s depth, but Maresca expressed confidence that others can step up until the midfielder’s return.

Chelsea fans will hope Palmer is back in action before next month’s crucial fixtures as the club pushes to climb higher in the Premier League table.
