Chelsea have been handed a significant lift ahead of their upcoming Premier League encounter against Nottingham Forest. Interim head coach Calum McFarlane revealed during his Friday press briefing that key defenders Reece James and Levi Colwill are likely to feature in the squad for Monday’s match at Stamford Bridge.
The duo have been recovering from injuries that kept them out of action, but have now returned to full training with the first team. McFarlane expressed optimism about their availability, stating, “Reece is back in training, and Levi is back in training as well. Both are looking good, which is really positive. Things are looking promising.”
This double boost comes at a crucial time for the Blues as they aim to secure a positive result against a resilient Forest side. The return of James and Colwill will bolster Chelsea’s defensive options and provide much-needed depth for the remainder of the season.
