Out with groin problem Badiashile suffered a groin injury and won't be in the squad against Manchester City on Sunday. Interim manager Frank Lampard told reporters, "Benoit injured himself in training tw...

Impact Badiashile has appeared in just three of the club's last 10 contests but injuries to Marc Cucurella (quadriceps), Ben Chilwell (hamstring) and Reece James (hamstring) likely would have kept Badiashile in the lineup had he not suffered an injury of his own. Wesley Fofana figures to rejoin the starting XI with Badiashile sidelined.

MAY 6, 2023 • YOUTUBE

Scores first EPL goal Badiashile scored with his only shot-on-target in Saturday's 3-1 victory over AFC Bournemouth. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 65th minute.

Impact Badiashile scored his first EPL goal on Saturday. He placed an assertive shot past the Bournemouth keeper, Neto, from a well-taken free kick placed by Hakim Ziyech. The Frenchman joined Chelsea in January from AS Monaco and has not been a regular starter (been on the bench for five of the last seven games). From ten appearances (9 starts) he has contributed to four clean sheets.

One appearance in last month Badiashile is training well and is "very close" to breaking into Chelsea's starting XI, manager Frank Lampard said in his press conference Friday.

Impact Badiashile has only played in one of Chelsea's seven matches across all competitions since the start of April. He wasn't registered for the UCL and therefore was not able to feature in those games, but he's also been an unused substitute for every Premier League game in that span minus the 2-1 defeat to Brighton on April 15. Lampard explained, "There are a lot of young players who have come from a different league. It's understandable to have moments of game time and moments when you're not. You're finding your feet in this league. In a normal case, these players come in at a club like Chelsea at a moment of big stability. At this moment, it's not the case. Credit to those players, it's not easy to take that responsibility on their shoulders. They're all trying to work and keep going and we're here as staff to support that."

Not registered for UCL Badiashile is out for Wednesday's trip to Dortmund, having not been registered to the Champions League squad.

Impact Badiashile was not registered to the Champions League Squad and will not be available for Wednesday's trip to Dortmund. The defender has been a nailed-on starter since joining Chelsea, and will be a major miss in the Champions League. With the mid-week to rest Badiashile will likely remain a consistent starter in the Premier League.

Moves to Chelsea Badiashile has signed a seven-and-a-half-year deal with Chelsea from French side Monaco.

Impact It's a massive deal for Badiashile, who is yet another defender from Ligue 1 that Chelsea have gone after. It's the first signing for Graham Potter and one that will likely take away minutes from Trevoh Chalobah this season. Badiashile had been a regular at Monaco since the 2018/19 season, so despite being just 21 years old, he has plenty of professional experience.
