Three things spotted at Chelsea training: Reece James returns ahead of Borussia Dortmund clash

Chelsea have been boosted by the return of Reece James to training ahead of their Champions League clash against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night. Graham Potter was left without his star defender in the win against Leeds United on Saturday afternoon with the England international struggling with injury.

James was left out of the squad after suffering from a tight hamstring, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek operating in the right wing-back role. Mason Mount was another absentee against Leeds, whilst Thiago Silva and Cesar Azpilicueta are still recovering from their own injury concerns.

Mount is suspended for the game against Dortmund, with Mateo Kovacic and Enzo Fernandez likely to start in midfield after a strong performance together on Saturday. football.london has taken a look at the key things spotted from training ahead of tomorrow (Tuesday) night's crucial fixture.
