Malo Gusto has been forced to withdraw from international duty due to a muscle injury sustained during Chelsea's draw against Crystal Palace. Manager Enzo Maresca confirmed that he experienced a muscle problem, and the situation regarding his recovery will be assessed further. His absence is significant as he will miss both of France's Under-21 European Championship qualifiers against Slovenia and Bosnia. The French Football Federation announced his withdrawal, marking yet another setback for Gusto.
Confirming Gusto's injury situation, Enzo Maresca stated, 'With Malo, we will see now what happens.' He acknowledged the possibility of a muscle issue but has no clear insight into the severity, indicating uncertainty for both the player and the team ahead of important fixtures. Chelsea will also miss club captain Reece James due to another hamstring injury, compounding challenges for the full-back position as they ready for the upcoming match against Bournemouth.
