Enzo Maresca's Chelsea-Barcelona press conference, featuring Cole Palmer injury update & more
"It's a big week, as you said, but at the end of this week, then we have Leeds away, Bournemouth away, Atalanta away, so it's another big one. It's always a big week, they are all important games, at the end of every game is three points, for sure there are games like Barcelona tomorrow and Arsenal Sunday that are important for different reasons, but actually the best thing for us is to win the game."
"The last time I spoke about Cole was in the last press conference, and the last time I spoke to Cole was yesterday, just after the session, to ask how he was feeling. Again, it was a good feeling, but I didn't ask him details about the injury at all."
"Yeah, we don't know when, but for sure it will be soon. He's already in pitch, he's already touching the ball, so I think it's good."
Cole Palmer is training on the pitch while wearing a protective boot and is already touching the ball, signalling progress toward a return. A return is expected soon, but he is unlikely to be ready for the upcoming Arsenal match. The immediate focus is the Champions League fixture against Barcelona, with the team prioritizing tomorrow's game before turning attention to the weekend. The schedule remains congested, with Leeds, Bournemouth and Atalanta following, making every match important. Pedri's absence is a significant loss for Barcelona due to his quality. Enzo Fernández is regarded as a fundamental and important player.
