Chelsea midfielder Roméo Lavia is reported to finally be nearing his return to full fitness, having missed more than three months during his latest injury absence since early November.
Lavia was last seen on the pitch for the 2–2 Champions League draw against Qarabağ and has missed 98 games with injuries so far, totalling 608 days, since he joined the Blues in a £58 million ($78.2 million) transfer from Southampton in the summer of 2023.
