Last season, Levi Colwill played an important role in the Chelsea squad. This star played 43 matches in all competitions and became an irreplaceable player in defense.
In addition, Levi also made direct contributions, such as scoring in the decisive match for a Champions League ticket (beating Nottingham 1-0) or assisting in the FIFA Club World Cup final against PSG.
However, in the pre-season, Levi Colwill was unfortunately injured. According to Chelsea, this player had successfully undergone surgery to treat ligament damage. This also means that Colwill will miss most of next season.
After Chelsea's recent win over Bayer Leverkusen, manager Enzo Maresca mentioned the English defender's case: "Levi was a great player.
What we achieved last season was also thanks to him. The whole team will miss him. We are also trying to find different solutions.
In the immediate future, Chelsea has signed center back Jorrel Hato from Ajax and welcomed Wesley Fofana back to training. However, when asked if the club will sign more centre-backs before the transfer window ends, the Italian coach replied: "Let's wait and see, let's wait and see."
In the transfer market, The Blues are said to be targeting names like Marc Guehi and Branthwaite. In particular, Guehi has the advantage of playing for Chelsea, while Everton's Branthwaite has a lot of experience playing in the Premier League.
