Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca confirmed that he considers signing a replacement for his injured centre back Levi Colwill to be a “priority”. Whether that stance is shared by the club’s recruitment department is another matter.
Colwill pulled up at the end of Monday’s training session clutching his knee. As it later transpired, the commanding defender had damaged his anterior cruciate ligament and was forced to undergo surgery which will likely rule him out for much of the 2025–26 campaign.
