Wesley Fofana is back on the grass at Chelsea’s training ground doing individual work, with it hoped that the £75million defender can return before the end of the season.
Enzo Maresca sparked concern earlier this month when the Blues boss raised the possibility of Fofana missing the remainder of the campaign. His serious hamstring injury has seen the 24-year-old sidelined since a 3-0 win over Aston Villa on December 1.
With Benoit Badiashile also injured, Chelsea assessed their options and last week recalled Trevoh Chalobah from his season-long loan with Crystal Palace to help their depleted defence.
