Alonso finally gives detail on Moises Caicedo injury and training status

Xabi Alonso has provided additional insight into Moises Caicedo's injury and training status, which has significantly impacted Chelsea's season. The midfielder's issue appears to be related to his calf, the same as a previous injury sustained in a match against Brighton. Alonso expressed his disappointment, as a brief stint with Caicedo during the Brighton game seemed to exacerbate the problem.

He acknowledged that pushing the player too early might have been a mistake, and this has led to increased caution in their approach to his recovery. Alonso stated that he is being careful not to repeat the same error. Despite this setback, Alonso did convey some optimism to Estevao, who has been disappointed by the limited playing time he's received this season.

It seems Chelsea will continue to rely on Caicedo for another week, as the club aims to manage the situation thoughtfully and avoid any further risks.
