WOLVERHAMPTON, England — Chelsea midfielder Romeo Lavia is out injured again.
Lavia was left out of Chelsea's squad for Sunday's Premier League game at Wolves, with manager Enzo Maresca saying the midfielder has a minor hamstring problem.
Lavia was one of Chelsea's big-money signings last summer but then missed nearly the entire season with injuries. He made his first Premier League start in last weekend's opening 2-0 loss to Manchester City, when he was one of Chelsea's best players.
Chelsea's latest signing, Joao Felix, was on the bench after joining from Atletico Madrid. Raheem Sterling was once again left out the squad completely.
