August 21st 2024.
As the weekend approaches, all eyes are on Chelsea Football Club. After a tumultuous week filled with transfer news and their recent defeat against Manchester City, the team is looking to turn things around and kick off their Premier League season on a positive note against Wolves.
One player who could make his debut this weekend is Joao Felix. The young talent recently completed his permanent move to Chelsea from Atletico Madrid and has already impressed during the pre-season. His bright performance has put him in contention for a spot in the starting lineup this weekend.
Another player to watch out for is Pedro Neto, who made his debut for Chelsea as a substitute in their match against Manchester City. The former Wolves player will be pushing for a start against his former team this Sunday.
Despite the ongoing drama surrounding the club's transfer activity, Chelsea's assistant coach Enzo Maresca remains focused on working with the existing group of 21 players. While the situation with the squad size is complicated, Maresca can at least count on a relatively healthy team to work with.
However, there are a few players who will not be available for selection. Reece James will be serving the last two games of his four-match ban, while club captain Raheem Sterling is nursing a hamstring injury that will keep him out of the Europa Conference League play-off match against Servette on Thursday. Wesley Fofana will also sit out the midweek game but is expected to return to the starting lineup alongside Levi Colwill against Wolves.
It is clear that Maresca has a lot of options in terms of players to choose from, but he has already made some tough decisions by freezing out players like Ben Chilwell, Trevoh Chalobah, and Axel Disasi from the first-team squad.
Many fans are eagerly anticipating the potential lineup for Sunday's match, with names like Felix, Neto, and Jackson being thrown into the mix. The excitement is building up as we wait to see how Chelsea will line up against Wolves.
For those wondering where to watch the match, it kicks off at 2pm on Sunday 25 August. However, unfortunately, it will not be available to watch live in the UK.
