In the recent Premier League face-off against Luton Town, Chelsea's Mauricio Pochettino provided insights into the absence of Roméo Lavia from the squad. Despite securing a 3-2 victory, the Blues encountered a tense finale with Luton scoring twice late in the game.
Lavia, who made his debut against Crystal Palace earlier in the week, was notably missing from the squad. Pochettino revealed that the 19-year-old midfielder experienced discomfort after his debut, explaining, "Roméo Lavia not included in Chelsea squad today after he 'felt something' on his debut vs Palace," emphasizing the caution taken due to this development.
The young midfielder, who joined Chelsea in the summer from Southampton, has faced challenges on the field primarily due to injury setbacks since his arrival. Pochettino's strategic decision to rest Lavia against Luton Town underscores the careful management of player well-being within the team.
