Chelsea Injury Crisis: Palmer, Fofana Out Ahead of Brighton Clash

Chelsea faces an injury crisis as Cole Palmer, Wesley Fofana, and Tosin Adarabioyo are ruled out ahead of the Brighton clash. Head coach Enzo Maresca confirmed the absence of these key players due to injuries, leaving the team stretched for the upcoming crucial games.

Palmer's absence is particularly significant as he was substituted early in the last match due to a groin problem. Fofana is sidelined for at least 12 days with concussion symptoms, while Adarabioyo is also out with a calf injury.

The timing of these injuries could not be worse for Chelsea as they face a tough run of games, impacting their season's shape.
