Chelsea’s preparations for their recent match were briefly overshadowed by a police incident outside their team hotel in South London. The situation unfolded when a car collided with a police vehicle during a high-speed chase near the Chelsea players’ accommodation.

Three individuals were arrested at the scene, but the incident did not impact the team’s schedule. The squad successfully made their way to Stamford Bridge for their fixture against Wolves later that evening.

A spokesperson for Chelsea reassured fans, stating: “The team remained unaffected by the incident. They followed their matchday schedule as planned and arrived safely at Stamford Bridge.”

The Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrests and explained that the chase was unrelated to Chelsea or their players. This quick resolution ensured that the incident caused no disruption to Chelsea’s matchday plans.

Despite the unexpected events, the Blues secured a convincing 3-1 victory over Wolves, further consolidating their position in the Premier League table.
