Chelsea set potential date for Reece James return | OneFootball

Chelsea hope to get Reece James back in time for their game against Arsenal on the 21st of October, following the next international break, according to a report in the Daily Mail.

They say that our match against Burnley next weekend comes just too soon, but that the full back could be ready after that.

James started just one game for Chelsea this season before picking up this latest injury, and will add a huge amount of quality to our right hand side the moment he’s fit.

No wonder fans are so keen to see him in action again. Malo Gusto’s ban means we will be particularly weak in that area next month.

James is the club captain and it’s felt like his early removal from action has been one of the main contributing factors to our dreadful start of the season. That theory looks like it will soon be tested.
