Romeo Lavia, the talented midfielder for Chelsea, has assured fans that the wait for his return from injury will be worthwhile. Lavia, who faced setbacks at the start of his Chelsea journey due to an ankle injury, recently made his debut against Crystal Palace but suffered another injury to his quadriceps, limiting his playing time to a 32-minute cameo.
Despite these setbacks, the 20-year-old Belgian remains optimistic about his recovery and expressed gratitude for the support from fans. Lavia took to social media to share a message saying, “Received a lot of support messages, and I wanted to let you know that it means a lot to me. The wait will be worth it…”
As Chelsea faces upcoming fixtures, including the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool, Mauricio Pochettino has cast doubt on Lavia’s short-term availability. The midfielder is still in the recovery phase, with Pochettino stating, “He is not training with the team. He is still recovering. Still not on the pitch.”
Despite uncertainties about his near-term return, Lavia’s commitment to making a significant impact upon his comeback brings hope to Chelsea fans during a crucial stretch of fixtures in February.
