Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Romeo Lavia will miss their Boxing Day clash against Fulham.
Maresca spoke at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday ahead of Chelsea’s home clash with Fulham at Stamford Bridge.
Lavia is currently recovering from an injury but he is not fully ready for action yet.
The midfielder missed Chelsea’s Premier League 0-0 draw with Everton last weekend.
“Romeo is still recovering. He’s much, much better,” Maresca said.
“He’s already working on the pitch but unfortunately he’s not ready [for Fulham]. [It’s] the same situation [for the others].”
