Cole Palmer Injury: Late call against Brentford

Palmer (groin) trained for the first time Thursday and will be a late call for Saturday's clash against Brentford, coach Enzo Maresca said in a press conference, according to Football London. "Cole took part in the session yesterday for the first time, not the entire session. We have one more session this afternoon and we are going to try with him to see if he's okay, otherwise he will be out tomorrow. He is recovering from an injury, it's not managing him, it's recovering from an injury. When he is available, we need to manage him because of the amount of games."

Palmer will be a late fitness call for Saturday's clash against the Bees after resuming team training on Thursday without completing the entire session. He will train again on Friday and be assessed afterward to determine his availability for Saturday's game. That said, if he has to miss another match, Estevao will likely replace him in the number 10 position.
