Rosenior gives injury updates on four Chelsea stars ahead of Brighton clash | OneFootball

Estevao will miss Chelsea’s game against Brighton on Tuesday after being forced off in the defeat to Manchester United on Saturday.

The Brazilian winger was taken off on in the first half with what looked to be a hamstring injury.

His club and international team-mate Joao Pedro, meanwhile, will be a late decision after missing the Manchester United game.

Enzo Fernandez has been passed fit to play, however.

“Joao will be a late call,” Rosenior said.

“He was out on the pitch today and we’ll make a decision on him tomorrow morning, so that’s good, positive, because he’ll be back sooner rather than later.

“Este, he’s definitely out for tomorrow, which is a real shame and we’re doing our further tests and investigation into his injury and Enzo is absolutely fine.”

Levi Colwill played for Chelsea’s under-21 side last week as he stepped up his recovery from the knee injury which has kept him out all season.

“Very hopefully, yes, you can see him before the end of the season,” Rosenior said on the defender’s fitness.

“Levi’s plan, it was a very low-level game, 60 minutes was a really, really good start for him. We want him to be involved in the next game on Saturday with the under-21s as well, build him up, because it’s been a really bad injury that he’s come back from.

“So his rehab’s gone really well, he’s trained today, he makes a huge impression on the group. You can see his presence on the training pitch. I can’t wait to have him back in with the group.”
