The Englishman' start to the 2024/2025 season has been delayed due to an injury picked up in preseason. Reece is now reportedly fully focused on his return with Chelsea. Chelsea captain has returned to team training after an extended period on the sidelines. The confirmation came from Chelsea on Monday. "Back in team training," read the post from the Blues' official twitter account, with pictures of the 24-year-old as he made his long-awaited comeback to Cobham Training Ground.
The full back has been plagued by injuries in recent seasons. In the 2023-24 season last year he was only able to register 10 Premier League appearances as a result of his continuous fitness concerns. He also had to sit out on the Euros with England in the summer, after he was also absent from the 2022 World Cup squad due to knee injury in the build-up.
