Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior has disclosed that captain Reece James will be fit to face Leeds United in Tuesday’s Premier League clash.
Recall that James missed Saturday’s win at Wolves due to injury, but Rosenior is confident the issue isn’t serious.
He said: “Reece is so close and should be fit for Tuesday. At the moment, with the games we have, everything is being taken day by day.

“He’s really, really close – there’s no major problem at all – and it would be great to have him available for Tuesday.
“It’s a pain management issue and to be honest, Reece was out running (at Cobham) yesterday. But it just wasn’t right.
“Again, we’re in the midst of a really, really difficult period of games, because of the number of games that we’ve got. Hopefully, he comes back fully fit and fully rested for Tuesday.”
