Leaked AGAIN! Chelsea team news ahead of crucial PSG clash

Published on

Chelsea’s starting XI to face Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 clash appears to have been leaked again.

The Blues suffered a 5-2 defeat in the first leg as Liam Rosenior’s line-up was leaked hours before the match started. Despite the coach stating the club will launch an investigation, the pattern has continued.

Ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League last-16 second leg at Stamford Bridge, multiple French outlets has reported that Wesley Fofana will come out of the side in place of Jorrel Hato.

Fofana, 25, struggled in Paris and was at fault for Newcastle’s goal on Saturday, as Chelsea suffered a 1-0 loss.

However, the defender’s absence is reportedly down to injury. Fofana is said to be experiencing muscle pain, putting Hato in line to start at Stamford Bridge.

It’s now left to be seen if the leak is a bluff or Rosenior will face a new challenge in his spell as Chelsea coach. The Blues boss confirmed after his selection was leaked last week: “I’m sure we’ll get to the bottom of that if that’s the case. These things now, they happen quite a lot.

“We get information about our opposition. I’m more worried about the end result than the beginning of the game.”

Meanwhile, captain Reece James, who’s largely been free of injuries this season, is set to be out for several weeks with a hamstring problem.

“With Reece, he felt something in his hamstring at the end of the game versus Newcastle,” Rosenior told a pre-match press conference. “That’s really frustrating and disappointing for us and we don’t know the full extent of that just yet but it rules him out of tomorrow’s game.
