"He is probably not available for Saturday for sure, Barcelona for sure or Arsenal for sure,"
"Unfortunately, he had an accident at home where he hit his toe."
"It is nothing important, but he won't be back in the next week."
"I wake up many times in the night to go to the toilet, I hit my head and leg and everything. It can happen. He was very close. He was back with us almost, from the groin [injury], which is very good news, but he has this small problem. We don't know [about a timescale]. It's fractured. The only thing we know he is not available for this week and next week."
Cole Palmer fractured his toe at home after an accident and will be unavailable for Chelsea's immediate fixtures. Palmer suffered a groin injury in August and aggravated it on his return in September, keeping him largely sidelined this season. The manager had hoped for a return after the November international break, but the new toe fracture rules him out for the upcoming weekend and the matches against Barcelona and Arsenal. Chelsea face Barcelona in the Champions League next Tuesday and host Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on November 30. The club has not given a longer recovery timescale.
