Thomas Tuchel confirms double Chelsea injury boost ahead of Atletico Madrid clash

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has provided a double injury boost ahead of the club’s Champions League round of 16 first-leg tie against Atletico Madrid.

The Blues recently drew 1-1 against Southampton on the road and that ended a run of four successive wins for the club in the Premier League.

They are scheduled to take on Atletico in Bucharest on Tuesday night and ahead of the game, Tuchel revealed positive news on the injury front.

Kai Havertz has completely overcome his knock sustained earlier this month and he is in line to face Diego Simeone’s side alongside Christian Pulisic.
