Chelsea’s Belgian midfielder Roméo Lavia is on the verge of rejoining the squad after a lengthy injury layoff. Manager Mauricio Pochettino has likened Lavia’s situation to that of Christopher Nkunku, suggesting that the player may soon be involved with the team activities.
Lavia, who has been sidelined for nearly six months, is reportedly making good progress in his recovery. However, Pochettino has indicated that while the player is doing well, he still requires more time before he can be fully integrated back into the team.
This update was shared by Nizaar Kinsella via Twitter, providing insight into the midfielder’s rehabilitation process. Lavia, who operates in the heart of Chelsea’s midfield and competes in the Premier League, is seen as a valuable asset to the club’s roster. His return to fitness will be closely monitored by the Chelsea coaching staff and supporters alike.
