Triple Boost For Blues Ahead Of Wembley Final
Big Chelsea injury news ahead of the final against Manchester City
Chelsea injury news: Chelsea received a massive boost this week, with interim manager Calum McFarlane confirming that Robert Sanchez, Alejandro Garnacho, and Pedro Neto are all back in full training and ready for Saturday’s FA Cup final against Manchester City at Wembley.
According to Metro Sport, McFarlane told reporters on Thursday, “Pedro Neto and Ale Garnacho have trained well this week, so looking really good.”
Sanchez, who suffered a nasty head collision with Morgan Gibbs-White against Nottingham Forest, is also back with the squad, giving McFarlane plenty of reason to be optimistic. Reece James and Levi Colwill offer even more options after both put in strong performances during Chelsea’s 2-1 win at Liverpool last weekend, a result that finally snapped a painful six-game Premier League losing streak. Chelsea go into Saturday’s final after a chaotic season, but they finally have some real momentum behind them.

Could this Wembley final mark the turning point Chelsea genuinely need?
Honestly, yes, but it won’t be straightforward. Garnacho brings pace and incredible creativity out wide on the left, even if his decision-making in tight spaces can still blow hot and cold. Neto offers something completely different: sharp movement, clever link-up play, and a real end product, though his fitness history is always a worry for any manager. Sanchez is a commanding presence in goal on his day, offering a level of experience and stability that Filip Jorgensen just can’t guarantee yet, despite his solid shift at Anfield.

If all three start, Chelsea suddenly have the width, pace, and composure at the back needed to hurt City’s high defensive line. McFarlane has done a brilliant job steadying the ship, and getting this positive Chelsea injury news right before Wembley feels like a massive stroke of luck just when they need it most. Winning a trophy won’t fix the club’s deeper issues overnight, but it completely changes the mood heading into the summer.
