Wesley Fofana, a defender for Chelsea, has stated he will not go with the team on its preseason tour of the United States owing to a knee injury. Manager Mauricio Pochettino has chosen a 29-man traveling squad.
Despite moving for £70 million from Leicester last summer, the 22-year-old defender had an injury-marred debut at Stamford Bridge.
Due to a knee issue that is now being evaluated, the Blues have announced that Fofana will not visit the United States.
As a result of a knee injury, Fofana had missed 15 matches in the Premier League before becoming a regular late in the season.
Reece James, another defender, did not go with the group as a safety measure after feeling ill on Monday morning.
When James feels better, he is anticipated to join Pochettino's team.
Following a result of Marseille's interest in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Chelsea postponed the date of the striker's return.
In a manner similar to how Hakim Ziyech's comeback from last week was postponed, Romelu Lukaku is scheduled to return on Tuesday.
