Chelsea defender, Wesley Fofana has made huge progress on his injury recovery journey.

The France international is yet to train or play under Mauricio Pochettino after picking up an ACL injury ahead of the new campaign.

Fofana has however, revealed that he’s making major progress in his quest to return for Chelsea, following his £80m move from Leicester City last year.

The young centre-back recently shared via his social media that he’s now running, which means his return isn’t that far off.

Meanwhile, Pochettino has already stated that he believes Fofana will play for Chelsea this season despite the injury setback.

The Argentine said in a press conference: “I hope yes. You know very well because you have all of the information that this is difficult. The problem after is that it’s a different situation.

“He is evolving in a different way but hopefully, everything went well his recovery goes very well and as soon as possible he can be back.”
