Forced off in tears

Anselmino (undisclosed) was forced off in tears during Chelsea's friendly against Johor Darul Ta'zim, with Reggie Watson replacing him in the 29th minute, according to Simon Johnson of The Athletic.

Analysis: Anselmino's career has been plagued by recurring hamstring issues since Chelsea signed him from Boca Juniors in 2024, including a difficult loan spell split between Dortmund and Strasbourg last season that limited him to just six appearances at Dortmund and three at Strasbourg without a single start. This latest setback adds to that frustrating pattern just as he appeared to be putting those fitness issues behind him. Anselmino is expected to undergo further evaluation to determine the severity of the injury.

Trains fully at Cobham

Anselmino (hamstring) trained at Cobham last week as Chelsea's preparations continued ahead of the club's preseason tour starting late this week, according to the club.

Analysis: Anselmino's involvement in the high intensity session is a positive sign after a difficult loan spell split between Dortmund and Strasbourg last season, during which persistent injury issues limited him to just six appearances at Dortmund and three at Strasbourg without earning a start. His participation in training suggests he has put those fitness setbacks behind him, and his path forward, whether at Chelsea or out on loan again, will be one to track as preseason progresses.
