Antonio Rudiger

Some good news on the Rudiger front.

Reece James

James was left out of the Chelsea side that beat West Ham on Sunday. Tuchel confirmed before the match that the England international was sidelined due to a recurring injury problem.

“It isn’t a new injury or a recurrence of an old injury,” the Blues head coach confirmed. “We checked the medical images, and there is absolutely nothing, but he didn’t feel totally comfortable.

“He felt like something could happen if he took that risk, and we absolutely do not want to have a re-injury, so we have taken the safe route and left him out. Not having Reece is a big loss because of his individual quality and what he brings to the team. It’s a shame not to have him with us today.”JAMB Result
