Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has reaveled that his side have been dealt a huge injury blow after Nicolas Jackson and Marc Guiu suffered setbacks against West Ham.

Chelsea striker Marc Guiu will be sidelined for weeks after picking up an injury during Monday's 2-1 Premier League win over West Ham United, coach Enzo Maresca said on Friday.

“Marc is improving a lot, to be honest. He is doing fantastic; day by day, he is getting more and more ready for that sort of game but sometimes the decision is because I see something and sometimes it is good, sometimes it is not. For sure, Marc, I think day after day, he is more ready,” Maresca said.

Chelsea wonderkid Marc Guiu took to social media to make his feelings known regarding Renato Veiga's loan move to Juventus.
