Chelsea's Ben Chilwell out for the season

After deciding to have knee surgery, the 25-year-old, Ben Chilwell is projected to miss the rest of the season.

Chelsea opted to discontinue Ben Chilwell’s prior rehabilitation plan and send him for surgery, which means he will miss the remainder of the season.

Chelsea's Ben Chilwell out for the season

After injuring his anterior cruciate ligament in November’s 4-0 Champions League triumph against Juventus, it was believed that the defender would avoid surgery and return in January.

The Blues believe the issue now requires knee surgery, and the England international is expected to return next season.

Chelsea will need to find a replacement for Chilwell during his January absence. They might sign someone or recall one of their many players who are currently on loan.

After falling out of favor with Rafael Benitez, the Blues may try to persuade Everton to let Lucas Digne go on a six-month loan. The France international is currently being offered to a number of teams ahead of a January move.

After winning the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé is expected to be announced as a new signing by Real Madrid the following week.

In February, the 25-year-old international athlete made his choice. He can now be regarded as a new Real player because every document has been completed, sealed, and signed.

As per media reports, Kylian Mbappé joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer. “.. I wanted to announce to you all that it’s my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
