Reece James' fresh injury boost has come at a good time for everyone at the club including Thomas Tuchel and as a result, a new wing-back signing may not be as hot on the agenda anymore due to this latest update.
James, 22, is set to return to match action for Chelsea at the upcoming Club World Cup, handing Thomas Tuchel a significant boost in the Premier League run-in.
In fact, it may be other competitions that could be the focus now for the returning Cobham graduate with a 10 points gap still prevalent between the Blues and Man City. however, an upcoming Carabao Cup final coupled with runs in the Champions League and FA Cup provides the chance for the former Wigan man to continue where he left off before the Brighton hamstring injury.
