Chelsea FC Team News: Liam Rosenior Delivers Latest Update Ahead of Aston Villa Clash Liam Rosenior has provided the latest Chelsea team news ahead of our Premier League encounter with Aston Villa on Sunday. The Blues' assistant coach offered a comprehensive update on the fitness of our players, including some positive news on the injury front. There was a boost for Thomas Tuchel's squad as Reece James returned to training this week after suffering a hamstring strain. Although he has not featured since our 2-0 win over Arsenal in early October, Rosenior is optimistic that the England international will be available for selection against Villa. "He's started training again and we're pleased with his progress," said Rosenior. "He'll continue to train with us until Sunday and we'll assess him then. If he comes through unscathed, there's a good chance he'll feature in the matchday squad." Chelsea have also received a welcome boost up front as Kai Havertz has overcome a minor knock that had been troubling him. The German midfielder played 45 minutes in our Carabao Cup quarter-final victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday and Rosenior is confident he will be fully fit for the Villa game. "Havertz trained with us yesterday and was fine," added Rosenior. "He's a big player for us and we're delighted to have him back available." One player who will miss out, however, is Jorginho, who is still recovering from a minor ankle injury sustained in our 1-0 win over Manchester United earlier this month. "Jorginho is not ready yet," said Rosenior. "He's still got some way to go before he can feature again. We're giving him the time and space he needs to recover fully."
