Chelsea's Moisés Caicedo: Out opening day

Rotowire ·

Caicedo is out for Monday's match against Fulham due to a fitness issue in training, according to manager Xabi Alonso. "They had minor setbacks during the week, so they were not fit to play tonight."

Analysis:

Caicedo is at the stadium with Chelsea on Monday, but is not in the team sheet, signifying the midfielder is likely dealing with some sort of fitness issue. This is a major loss for the team, as the Ecuadorian has only missed a handful of games since joining the club, a regular in the midfield for them. The good news it is only a training injury he picked up, likely to make a quick turnaround after only a minor setback.
