James Out of Chelsea’s Starting Lineup for Club World Cup Quarterfinal vs Palmeiras Due to Injury

  • Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca announced Romeo Lavia’s fitness doubts and Caicedo’s suspension ahead of Friday’s Palmeiras clash, causing tactical concerns.
  • Prompted by Lavia’s muscle injury after Benfica and Caicedo’s suspension, Maresca faces late squad decisions with Joao Pedro recently joining from Brighton on holiday.
  • Maresca said: 'Lavia had a small problem at the end of the last game against Benfica; we see if he's fit tomorrow,' as reported by football.london.
  • Chelsea's midfield reshuffle follows Caicedo's suspension and James's injury, with Santos replacing James in the starting lineup for the Palmeiras match.
  • Chelsea risks elimination against Palmeiras in Philadelphia, with Fluminense or Al-Hilal possible semi-final opponents and a lucrative Club World Cup victory at stake.
