Concussion cleared for FA Cup Final
Sanchez (concussion) trained this week and could be an option for Saturday's FA Cup final against Manchester City, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "He has trained well this week and we're hopeful going into Saturday."
Analysis: Sanchez's clearance is a timely boost for Chelsea heading into the showpiece fixture after missing the last match following the concussion sustained against Nottingham Forest. The Spanish goalkeeper is expected to reclaim his starting role between the posts, with Filip Jorgensen reverting to a backup option. Getting their first-choice goalkeeper back for one of the biggest matches of the season is a significant development for coach Calum McFarlane.
Out against Liverpool
Sanchez (concussion) will miss Saturday's clash against Liverpool, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "Rob won't be available after the injury he sustained against Nottingham Forest."
Analysis: Sanchez was forced off during Monday's match against Nottingham Forest following a collision, and the concussion diagnosis has now kept him out of consecutive fixtures. Filip Jorgensen is expected to start between the posts in his absence, stepping in for the club's starting goalkeeper at a critical stage of the season. Chelsea will continue to monitor Sanchez's progress through protocol before providing a clearer picture on his return timeline.
