Chelsea have received a boost on the injury front as the season nears its conclusion.

The Blues have an FA Cup semi final against Manchester City that could save their season.

While they cannot call on him this weekend, the club has confirmed that Christopher Nkunku has returned to partial team training.

On Nkunku's fitness, manager Mauricio Pochettino stated: "They assess him day by day and in the last few days he has the possibility to be involved in some parts of the training session.

"We now need to see the reaction of his body and see how he evolves. We hope he can be involved soon."

Chelsea are currently in ninth place in the Premier League, but are only three points behind sixth place.
