Chelsea have a big game tomorrow that they are currently getting prepared for.
Not only is it a huge game in the Champions League with a big importance of getting the result, but it will also be Graham Potter’s first game in charge as Chelsea boss after being appointed last week.
Sources: Inside info on Chelsea’s search for a new DOF, with new name mentioned!
Potter took over from Thomas Tuchel, who was sacked by the club on Wednesday morning.
The former Brighton manager is now in place and has only had a few training sessions with his new squad. There was a session today that was streamed live by the club, and there was a couple of notable absentees.
N’Golo Kante is still injured, which we were all aware of. But there was also no Edouard Mendy in training, which of course, created many questions wondering on his availability tomorrow.
Adam Newson of Football London reports that Mendy is injured, and the expectation is that he will miss the game tomorrow as a result.
Edouard Mendy was absent from Chelsea training this morning.
Understand that is because he's struggling with an injury and is expected to miss tomorrow night's #UCL clash against FC Salzburghttps://t.co/BMm8O4LCan
