Chelsea have been warned that Cole Palmer's groin injury could keep him on the sidelines for longer than expected.
Enzo Maresca confirmed that Palmer will be absent for a further six weeks on Friday as he battles to return to fitness.
The 23-year-old has been unavailable for the Blues since September 20, with the groin issue continuing to hamper his recovery.
The England star was once again missing as Chelsea secured a 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Saturday and his return remains uncertain as he struggles to shake off a complaint that first surfaced during the Club World Cup in the summer.
Whilst Maresca has already prepared Chelsea supporters for Palmer's prolonged absence, Glenn Hoddle has issued a stark warning that groin injuries can prove particularly problematic, suggesting the former Manchester City talent could be out for an even lengthier period, reports the Mirror.
