Takes shot in win Loftus-Cheek took a shot on target and created a chance in Saturday's 6-0 victory against Southampton. He also made a block, a clearance, an interception and won two of two tackles...

Impact Loftus-Cheek started on the right wing Saturday as opposed to in central midfield, and he put in a solid shift on both sides of the ball. Still, he will likely return to the bench against Real Madrid on Tuesday as this was just his second Premier League start since the turn of the calendar year.

Back in training Loftus-Cheek (undisclosed) was pictured in training Tuesday ahead of Saturday's trip to Crystal Palace.

Impact Loftus-Cheek hasn't appeared for Chelsea since before the international break, but it looks like he's edging closer to a return. That being the case, he no longer has much of a role in the team with everyone healthy. At one point, he started five-straight league matches but an injury derailed that momentum.

Out with undisclosed injury Loftus-Cheek will miss out versus Plymouth Argyle on Saturday with an undisclosed injury.

Impact Loftus-Cheek was previously sidelined for four matches due to an undisclosed injury so it's unclear if this latest issue is related. With the team headed to Abu Dhabi for the FIFA Club World Cup, the midfielder will have some more time to recover prior to their next domestic clash versus Crystal Palace on Feb. 19.

Returns in Cup match Loftus-Cheek (undisclosed) played 17 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's Cup win against Tottenham.

Impact Loftus-Cheek is back from whatever was ailing him the past two weeks. He suffered the issue Dec. 16 and he looks to be recovered, meaning Chelsea's depth is getting back to regular. Of course, if the regular three midfielders are healthy, Loftus-Cheek is the fourth option, which could see him start fewer matches in the second half of the season.

Ruled out Wednesday Loftus-Cheek (undisclosed) will not be an option versus Brighton on Wednesday.

Impact It will be the third straight absence for Loftus-Cheek due to his lingering undisclosed injury. Until the team provides a more concrete timeline, fantasy players should probably consider the midfielder out indefinitely at this point. Even once cleared to return, Loftus-Cheek is far from a lock for the starting XI, though he did feature in five of the club's previous six contests before getting hurt.

Doubt for Sunday Loftus-Cheek is a doubt for Sunday's match against Wolves "because he's in pain," according to manager Thomas Tuchel. "I don't know if it is possible for them to travel with us tom...

Impact Loftus-Cheek received a couple knocks in Thursday's match and it wouldn't be surprising to see him completely miss out Sunday on a short week. He's started five of the team's last six matches and there's a chance both N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic are back in the XI Sunday.

Good to face Leeds Loftus-Cheek (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's match against Leeds, according to manager Thomas Tuchel.

Impact Clearly, whatever issue Loftus-Cheek picked up in warmups midweek wasn't major. It's expected he'll return to the XI Saturday given that Chelsea don't really have any other health options to play there. The midfielder has five shots in his last three starts, but his upside remains limited, as seen all of last season at Fulham.

Injured in warmups Wednesday Loftus-Cheek picked up an undisclosed injury in warmups Wednesday, according to manager Thomas Tuchel.

Impact Loftus-Cheek was set for his fourth-straight start Wednesday until he picked up an injury, forcing Reece James to play centrally next to Ross Barkley. Chelsea have massive injury issues in the midfield and it's unknown how long Loftus-Cheek will be out.

Provides assist against Juventus Loftus-Cheek won two of two tackles and six duels, had two successful take-ons and picked up an assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over Juventus.

Impact Loftus-Cheek contributed to the third goal for his side by picking his way through a defender in the box. He came in late for N'Golo Kante, who subbed off in the first half. He could see regular playing time if the teammate is forced to miss time. He has posted three assists, nine shots and ten tackles in 11 appearances (three starts). Chelsea will host Manchester United Sunday.

Assists as substitute Loftus-Cheek had an assist with his lone chance created while taking two shots (both on goal) during Saturday's 7-0 win over Norwich City.

Impact Loftus-Cheek entered the match in the 64th minute and set up Mason Mount's third goal of the match in the 91st. The assist was the second of the season for the midfielder coming from his lone chance created during his limited time on the pitch.

Assists opening goal Loftus-Cheek had an assist while taking two off target shots and creating two chances during Saturday's 3-1 win over Southampton.

Impact Loftus-Cheek set up Trevoh Chalobah in the ninth minute, assisting the opening goal of the match. The assist was the first of the season for the midfielder, in his first league start of the year, while his two chances created tied for the second highest total on the team.

Back in team Loftus-Cheek (COVID-19) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Liverpool.

Impact Loftus-Cheek returns to the team Saturday after missing the first two matches of the season because of COVID-19. It's unlikely he'll have much of a role at Chelsea this season and it wouldn't be surprising if he was sent away on loan again.

AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Tested positive for COVID-19 Loftus-Cheek tested positive for COVID-19 last week following the trip for the Super Cup, reports The Sun.

Impact Loftus-Cheek is expected to have a role on the team, but he'll now miss the first couple matches of the season because of a positive COVID-19 result. After appearing in 30 matches for Fulham last season, he should be able to find a role somewhere other than Chelsea.
