His absence was felt not only in goals and assists, but also in the rhythm and control he brings to Chelsea&rsquo;s attacking structure. Now, with one of the season&rsquo;s most important fixtures on the horizon, Enzo Maresca finally has his star forward available again.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#128680;&#10052;&#65039; BREAKING: Cole Palmer returns after long injury and will be available to start vs Arsenal. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/XFZ9UnkEnN\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/XFZ9UnkEnN<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1994401281260310534?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>November 28, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Timely Return for Cole Palmer<\/h2><p>Cole Palmer has not featured since he was forced off against Manchester United in September. He has missed 13 matches across domestic and European competitions so far. Maresca initially suggested that the Arsenal fixture might come too soon for Palmer.<\/p><p>However, Friday&rsquo;s assessment flipped the narrative entirely. The head coach expressed collective relief around the training ground. He described the mood as universally upbeat as Palmer participated without limitations. Maresca reiterated how influential Palmer has been since joining from Manchester City.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/manchester-city-vs-leeds-united-preview-betting-odds-predictions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Manchester City vs Leeds United Preview, Betting Odds and Predictions &ndash; 29\/11\/25<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>The coach called him a player capable of elevating Chelsea&rsquo;s entire attacking dynamic. Though he stressed the need to manage the forward&rsquo;s match fitness carefully. Maresca made it clear that Palmer is ready to contribute immediately if required. During Palmer&rsquo;s absence, summer arrival Estevao Willian emerged impressively.<\/p><p>The youngster scored crucial goals and demonstrated maturity beyond his age. His rise has prompted excitement about the possibility of pairing him with Palmer. It&rsquo;s an idea the coach hasn&rsquo;t ruled out. He acknowledged that the combination would depend on tactical demands but the prospect is certainly exciting.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/barcelona-vs-alaves-preview-betting-odds-predictions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Barcelona vs Alaves Preview, Betting Odds and Predictions &ndash; 29\/11\/25<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chelsea Momentum and Stakes on Sunday<\/h2><p>Chelsea are entering the weekend&rsquo;s fixture sitting second in the table. Now a win against the league leaders Arsenal would cut the gap at the top to just three points. Maresca insisted it remains too early to discuss title ambitions. However, he did note that the squad is in a far better position to compete than it was a year ago.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Stability, learning from past setbacks, and improved squad depth have all contributed to that progress. Further positive news arrived as Dario Essugo also returned to training after a lengthy spell out. He adds another option in midfield.
