Chelsea midfielder Romeo Lavia is set to return to competitive football tonight in the Premier League 2 clash against Leeds with the U21s, according to an exclusive source. The 22‑year‑old has been out of action since the start of November following a series of injuries and has spent the last ten days to two weeks back in first‑team training.
If he performs well, Lavia could be considered for the first‑team squad in the upcoming Arsenal match on March 1, a game earmarked as his potential return to senior football.
