From the source
Xabi Alonso has had to contend with a lot more injuries than he would have liked since becoming Chelsea manager. Currently, the Blues boss is without four key players ahead of a trip to Sunderland.
Maxence Lacroix looks set to be ruled out until 2027, with the French defender suffering a hamstring injury in the penalty shootout loss to Liverpool.
He joins a long list of key players currently sidelined. Emi Martinez is closing in on a return, while Reece James and Joao Pedro are missing.
