Reece James is set to make a return for Chelsea during this weekend’s Premier League meeting with Arsenal.

The Chelsea captain has missed the last seven weeks of action for the Blues after picking up an injury in the 1-1 draw with Liverpool in August.

James was expected back against Burnley, but he was handed a one-game suspension for verbally assaulting a match official.

The right-back has been working on his fitness since over the last few weeks, and according to reports, he is ready to play again.

Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella have had to deputise for James in his absence.
