Palmer, Fofana Available for Everton Clash as Chelsea Look for Consistency

Chelsea's Cole Palmer and Wesley Fofana are fit for Everton as Liam Delap faces up to four weeks out with a shoulder injury, coach Maresca confirmed.

  • Dec 12: Cole Palmer and Wesley Fofana are available for Chelsea's home Premier League clash with Everton on Saturday, but Liam Delap faces two to four weeks out with a shoulder injury.
  • Palmer's comeback followed more than two months out with lingering groin problems delayed by a fractured toe, prompting careful minutes management, while Fofana was substituted at Atalanta after an eye injury but trained afterwards.
  • Maresca, who was named Premier League Manager of the Month for November, said Cole Palmer finished Thursday's session with mixed feelings but is currently available with one more session planned.
  • Missing from selection, Liam Delap could be out for two to four weeks, joining Romeo Lavia and Levi Colwill, while Moises Caicedo serves the third and final domestic suspension.
  • With Chelsea winless in their last four matches, they seek their first top-flight win since last month's trip to Burnley, while Enzo Maresca says consistency is the next step amid injuries and suspensions shaping Everton selection.
