PREMIER - Chelsea could be without Mason Mount against Juventus
Thomas Tuchel has revealed that he’s unsure whether playmaker Mason Mount will recover in time to play in the UEFA Champions League group stage match against Juventus, adding that it will be a ‘matter of hours’ as to whether the Englishman makes it or not.
Mount, who missed last weekend’s defeat to Manchester City because of a ‘minor knock’ he sustained in the Carabao Cup game against Aston Villa, has been a key part of Tuchel’s plans since the German tactician arrived at the club last season.
After some brilliant performances for Chelsea over the last two terms, Mount has also become an important member of Gareth Southgate’s England roster and even started the UEFA Euro 2020 final versus Italy back in July.
Thomas has confirmed that he still does not know whether the creative midfielder will be available to play against Massimiliano Allegri’s side on Wednesday night.
"I absolutely don’t know, we have to see. In the end it will be a matter of hours as to whether he makes it or not," Tuchel told Chelsea’s website.
