According to Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, Wesley Fofana and Reece James will not be available for Sunday’s Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur.

The defensive pair “are slowly getting better” after their injuries. Mykhailo Mudryk, who is battling illness, will also not play in the London Derby.

But Maresca said the rest of the team is ready for the match.

He said: “Both [Reece James and Wesley Fofana] are slowly getting better. But it is a matter of weeks so they are still far.

“The only one who is still ill is Mykhailo Mudryk.

“The rest, they are all OK.”
