Cole Palmer, last-minute absence for Chelsea
Cole Palmer will miss Chelsea’s match against West Ham at the London Stadium, corresponding to the Premier League, due to an injury suffered during the warm-up before the match.
The international Englishman was replaced in Chelsea’s starting eleven by the young Brazilian Estêvão, who made his debut as a starter in the Premier League after arriving from Palmeiras this summer.
After prematurely abandoning the warm-up and heading to the tunnel, Palmer sat on the Chelsea bench at the start of the match.
