Chelsea striker Liam Delap will be sidelined for 10 to 12 weeks due to a hamstring injury, confirmed Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca. Delap sustained the injury during a Premier League match against Fulham and had to leave the game early.
Maresca mentioned that Delap will need more time to recover. This injury is a significant blow to the team, especially considering Delap had been showing great promise since joining from Ipswich Town. With tough upcoming matches against strong opponents like Bayern Munich and Liverpool, this will impact the team’s plans for the start of the Premier League and Champions League. To cover for Delap’s absence, Chelsea has recalled young striker Mark Giuli from his loan.
