Chelsea’s Belgian midfielder Roméo Lavia has been deemed unfit to participate in the upcoming Carabao Cup final. The club’s manager, Mauricio Pochettino, has stated that Lavia’s return from injury in time for the crucial match is “impossible”.
Lavia, who plays in the heart of the midfield for the Premier League side, has been sidelined due to an injury. Despite hopes that he might recover in time to contribute to Chelsea’s efforts to secure the cup, Pochettino’s recent statement has put an end to such speculation.
The absence of Lavia, a key player for Chelsea, is a significant blow to the team’s composition and strategy. However, the club will have to adjust and prepare for the final without him, as they aim to lift the Carabao Cup trophy.
