Mauricio Pochettino delivers positive Cole Palmer injury update

Chelsea supporters may soon see the return of Cole Palmer after he recovered from an illness.

Palmer, aged 21, is having a remarkable season, leading the Premier League in goals scored and emerging as one of Chelsea’s standout signings in recent transfer windows.

Despite his impressive performance, Palmer missed Chelsea’s previous match against Arsenal due to illness, during which Chelsea suffered a humiliating 5-0 loss, their worst defeat ever against their local rivals.

While Palmer’s absence may not have been the sole reason for Chelsea’s loss earlier in the week, his presence was definitely felt and he was missed by the team.

Positive news has come from Mauricio Pochettino, who has confirmed that he anticipates Cole Palmer, wearing number 20, to be ready for Saturday evening’s league match against Unai Emery’s Aston Villa.

Pochettino mentioned to reporters ahead of the game that Palmer has been training well, and they expect him to be available for selection against Aston Villa.

The match is set to take place tomorrow at Villa Park, with a kick-off time of 8 p.m. UK time.
