Fofana, Sterling, Mount: Chelsea injury news and return dates after Everton draw

Chelsea were held to a 2-2 by Everton at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening. Despite twice taking the lead, courtesy of a Joao Felix strike and Kai Havertz penalty, Graham Potter's side were pegged back by an Abdoulaye Doucouré header and Ellis Simms' late leveller to share the spoils.

While the result was frustrating for the west London outfit, there was positive news as N'Golo Kante returned to the matchday squad for the first time since August. However, there was cause for concern later in the match, when defender Wesley Fofana was withdrawn and later pictured with an ice pack on his right thigh.

Potter later confirmed this was due to fatigue, although he did admit the Frenchman was feeling his hamstring. Fortunately, the upcoming international break provides this list of absentees some extra recovery time to regain full fitness.
