Enzo Maresca has explained why Cole Palmer is not in the Chelsea squad to take on Arsenal in the Premier League.

Chelsea have limped into the international break with an absolute nothingburger of a game against Arsenal, losing our fourth in a row away from home in the league, making it over three months and seven games without a win on our Premier League travels.

Chelsea will be without England star Cole Palmer for their Premier League clash against Arsenal on Sunday. Palmer has endured a frustrating period following another impressive start to the season, failing to score in his last ten appearances in all competitions.
