Jadon Sancho, the 24-year-old winger currently with Chelsea, will not be participating in the upcoming match, as confirmed by manager Enzo Maresca. Sancho, who has been absent from recent games, is also uncertain for the fixture against Arsenal on Sunday. Maresca mentioned that if Sancho is not fit for the Arsenal match, he might return after the international break.
Sancho’s Recent Absences
Sancho’s absence has been a topic of discussion, with Maresca previously clarifying the reasons behind it. The manager has praised Sancho’s work ethic and emphasised the need for support during this period. Sancho, who joined Chelsea after stints with Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United, is known for his agility and creative play on the field.
Potential Return Timeline
Maresca’s comments suggest that Sancho’s return is contingent on his recovery progress. The international break could provide additional time for Sancho to regain fitness, potentially allowing him to rejoin the squad in the near future.
