Chelsea captain James' recovery is being delayed

Chelsea's right-back and captain Reece James continues his recovery from injury, but his return to the field is not expected anytime soon.

Details: At a press conference, Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca stated that James' recovery is taking longer than anticipated.

Quote:

“Reece James is still out and his recover is a bit delayed. The most important is that they come back when they are 100% fit. Reece is still not available”.

Reminder: Due to recurring injuries, James managed to play only 10 Premier League matches last season. He has yet to feature this season.
