Malo Gusto

Chelsea defender Malo Gusto (22) is facing another potential absence as he continues to be monitored ahead of Wednesday’s Carabao Cup clash against Arsenal. The right-back was left out of the FA Cup over the weekend as a precaution, and manager Liam Rosenior suggested a late decision will be made on his availability. With the club prioritising his fitness, Gusto appears more likely to be rested again, with a return against Brentford at the weekend a more realistic target. (Source: Simon Johnson, The Athletic)
