Chelsea Manager, Enzo Maresca has hailed the Blues duo Romeo Lavia and Wesley Fofana following his side’s pre-season friendly 2-2 draw against Wrexham at the Levi’s Stadium on Wednesday.
Both Lavia and Fofona made their long-awaited return to the pitch during the game against Wrexham.
The duo had an injury-derailed 2023-24 campaign with the former missing 43 games across all competitions because of an ankle and hamstring injury.
Speaking during his post-match press conference, Maresca said (via Football London): “Both are very important. It is important for them to get minutes. I’m happy for them. For one year without Wesley having any minutes.
“45 minutes for both is going to help them. Hopefully, we can have them both fit.”
