Hugo Ekitike Injury: True game-time call Saturday

Ekitike (hamstring) is a doubt for Saturday's trip to Chelsea, per manager Arne Slot."Hugo is going to train today again and let's see where he is, and the same can be said for Federico. We have to wait and see after the session where exactly they are."

Ekitike is in doubt for Saturday's clash as he recovers from a minor issue he picked up against Galatasaray in the Champions League. If Ekitike can't play in the final match before the international break it would bring Alexander Isak into the starting XI. Ekitike told reporters after the match that he didn't believe the injury to be a serious one.
