Benoit Badiashile - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Forced off injured Badiashile (undisclosed) was forced off injured in the 70th minute of Saturday's 4-1 victory against Benfica in the FIFA Club World Cup, according to Nizaar Kinsella for BBC Sport.

Impact Badiashile was forced off in the second half of Saturday's game with apparent cramps that turned out to be more serious than expected, as he was later seen on crutches on the sidelines. The Frenchman will likely be assessed in the coming days to determine the extent of the injury and whether he will have to miss time. This is a big blow for him since he is often injured and had been linked to a move to Marseille in the summer transfer window.

Impact Badiashile has been sidelined since early December due to an undisclosed injury but is close to returning to the squad, potentially at the start of next month. However, he has featured only four times this season, and given the competition in Chelsea's backline, he is unlikely to see much playing time until the end of the season.

Yet to appear Badiashile has not made a Premier League appearance before the international break.

Impact Badiashile finished last season as a starter, but under new management and in a new system he seems entirely out of favor. The defender seems to need multiple injuries ahead of him on the depth chart if he wants to earn any consistent minutes.

Impact Badiashile's injury concerns look to be more serious than most thought, now being out for the next month following the blow to his groin. This will force the player to miss around the next five matches in league play, also being out for the Carabao Cup Final against Liverpool on Feb. 25. The club will now be left mainly using Thiago Silva and Axel Disasi as the pairing in the center of the defense, with Levi Colwill also being a part of the rotation, as he is about to return from a knee issue. Chelsea will now look for a decent recovery with no setbacks from Badiashile, hoping to have the player ready to return by early March.

Impact Badiashile got the start in a 4-1 loss to Liverpool and came off the bench against Wolves, but evidently didn't escape unscathed. The defender will be a doubt for Monday's clash, though Levi Colwill (knee) is expected to return, and could take over in the starting XI.

Impact Badiashile is one of four Chelsea players who have been ruled out for this upcoming Cup match, alongside Ben Chilwell (hamstring), Romeo Lavia (thigh) and Carney Chukwuemeka (knee). However, the young center-back is in the final stages of his recovery process and could be available -- at least in some capacity -- to face Fulham on Jan. 13. Badiashile has started in five of Chelsea's last six games in which he's been available, so there's a chance he could return straight into the starting lineup once he's fit.

Nets against Blackburn Badiashile scored and played an hour during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Blackburn.

Impact Badiashile returned to the starting XI for the EFL Cup clash and also got on the scoresheet for the opening goal.

Axel Disasi has also played well, meaning Badiashile could be relegated to cup competitions more often than not.

NOVEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Badiashile was not deemed fit enough to start, but he can be a defensive option for the second half, particularly if the Blues have to close the game out down the stretch. Chelsea will feature Thiago Silva and Levi Colwill as the starting center-back pairing.

OCTOBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable against Arsenal Badiashile (hamstring) could be an option for Saturday's match versus Arsenal, confirmed manager Mauricio Pochettino. "Benoit Badiashile maybe can be available also for the match."
