Aarón Anselmino - muscle
Chelsea defender Aarón Anselmino (19) has yet to make his senior debut since joining from Boca Juniors in a £15.6m deal in January. Manager Enzo Maresca cited injury concerns, and sources confirm the club is being cautious with a minor muscle issue while helping him build the necessary physicality for Premier League football.
