Petr Cech, who sustained an elbow injury during the Champions League semi-final first leg, will be sidelined for approximately three months. This unfortunate setback means he will miss crucial matches, including the second leg of the semi-final and the beginning of the next Premier League season.
In Cech’s absence, Mark Schwarzer is expected to step in as the goalkeeper for the upcoming matches, including the return leg against Atletico Madrid.
Looking ahead to next season, there are talks of Thibaut Courtois returning to Chelsea on loan from Manchester United.
According to The Sun, José Mourinho personally contacted Courtois to discuss a potential return to Stamford Bridge for the next season. Courtois would reportedly have the assurance of being the starting goalkeeper for Chelsea, at least for the initial period.
