Romeo Lavia’s Troubled Journey: From Rising Star to Outcast at Chelsea

Romeo Lavia’s ordeal continues. The 20-year-old Belgian midfielder saw his career take off last season with Southampton, after also leaving Manchester City’s academy. In a new step in his career, signing for Chelsea, everything has fallen apart.

Those from Stamford Bridge acquired the services of the promising Belgian player for a total of 62.1 million euros. With some continuity, perhaps the center position could have been his, but injuries have hampered him since day 1. Since August 18, when his signing was made official, until now, he has only played one game in the ranks of the Londoners.

Upon arriving at Chelsea, he suffered an injury, which led him to miss half of the season until practically December 27, when he played 32 minutes in Chelsea’s victory against Crystal Palace by two goals to one in the Premier League. Until now, it was his thigh that had caused him problems, but at Christmas, what caused him to relapse was his ankle.

As Chelsea confirmed in a statement, he will miss the rest of the season, and the Euro Cup option is almost impossible. He would arrive in Germany with 0 minutes played, and in a sea of ​​doubts about his performance.
