Chelsea's new goalkeeper, Filip Jorgensen, has been making headlines since his arrival from Villarreal this summer. However, during Tuesday night's game between Denmark Under-21s and Czech Republic, Jorgensen had to be substituted due to an injury. The extent of the injury is unclear at the moment.
Jorgensen, who is just 22 years old, joined the Blues during the summer transfer window and has already made two appearances in the Europa Conference League. However, he is still waiting for his Premier League debut. Despite this, he was called up by Denmark's Under-21 team for the international break and even started in their games against Iceland and Czech Republic.
Unfortunately, towards the end of the match against the Czechs, Jorgensen had to be replaced by Andreas Jungdal. The Denmark Under-21s coach, Steffen Hojer, confirmed that he was not sure about the nature of Jorgensen's injury, but it was serious enough to warrant a substitution. He also mentioned that Jorgensen was disappointed to have to leave the game, but they are hoping it is not a major issue.
As Chelsea prepares for their Premier League match against Bournemouth on Saturday, their new goalkeeper's injury adds to a few other injury concerns for the team. Jorgensen was not expected to play in this game anyway, but now his chances of replacing Robert Sanchez in goal are even slimmer. Sanchez has started in all three of Chelsea's Premier League games so far, but has yet to keep a clean sheet.
Manager Enzo Maresca will also have to do without right-backs Reece James and Malo Gusto for the game against Bournemouth. However, he is hoping to have Cole Palmer and Romeo Lavia available after some fitness concerns. While Jorgensen's injury may not be a major concern for the team, other Premier League sides have suffered more serious injuries recently, including Arsenal's Martin Odegaard and Manchester City's Nathan Ake.
Despite the injury concerns, Chelsea remains focused on their upcoming game and their overall performance in the Premier League.
