Chelsea injury news latest and return dates after Cole Palmer confusion and Reece James update

1 hour ago 3

Liam Rosenior has been handed several boosts to his Chelsea squad ahead of their Champions League clash with Pafos in midweek. The Blues have been struggling with a mixture of key injuries and illness in the squad, as they make their way through an important period of the season.

Plenty is up for grabs, which includes passage straight to the round of 16 in the Champions League, if they can secure a top-eight finish. The west London outfit need two wins from their remaining matches to give themselves the best chance, as they currently sit 13th; picking up 10 points, while remaining two points off of eighth.

Pafos won't be the easiest of opponents, having picked up six points from their six matches in a debut campaign in the competition. That may lead Rosenior to balance resting some key players with sending out a team strong enough to get the job done, before the key showdown with Napoli.

So, with that said, here's a look at all the latest Chelsea injury news and updates ahead of the clash, involving the latest on Cole Palmer and Reece James.
