LONDON, May 13 — Thomas Tuchel hopes Mateo Kovacic can play through the pain barrier as the Chelsea midfielder battles to recover from an ankle injury in time for tomorrow’s FA Cup final against Liverpool.
The Croatian is suffering a recurrence of a previous ankle problem and Chelsea boss Tuchel said after the Leeds game that it would be a “miracle” if he could feature at Wembley. “We will try it today actually, which is pretty surprising news where we are in the situation where we can try it,” said Chelsea boss Tuchel.“The ligament is anyway stretched from the last incident, so there’s no new injury but heavy pain, and it’s heavily swollen.Tuchel believes Kovacic’s presence would be a huge boost to Chelsea’s bid to win the FA Cup for the first time since 2018.
