Chelsea head coach Graham Potter has revealed Reece James undertook jogging work at Cobham this morning as the England international attempts to return from injury ahead of the World Cup.
James has been ruled out since the 2-0 victory over AC Milan in the Champions League last month. The 22-year-old suffered a knee injury during the clash at San Siro and has since faced a race against time to be fit for the tournament in Qatar, which gets underway on November 20.
Gareth Southgate must decide whether to include James in his 26-man squad despite the fact the full-back will not be match fit. However, Potter did deliver a positive update on James this afternoon as he spoke to the press ahead of Chelsea's Carabao Cup third-round tie against Manchester City.
