Chelsea full-back Baba Rahman was back in
first-team training this week after
recovering from knee surgery.
The Ghanian spent last season on loan at
Schalke but his move was cut short after he
tore his anterior cruciate ligaments at the
Africa Cup of Nations.
The left-back joined
Chelsea in 2015 from
Augsburg but has
made just 15 league
appearances for the
Blues and failed to
impress Antonio Conte
upon his appointment
last summer.
Rahman was omitted
from both of Chelsea’s
Premier League and Champions League
squads and will have to prove his fitness to
be included in January.

A host of Chelsea stars are currently on
international duty, meaning Conte’s had a
depleted group to work with at the side’s
training ground this week.
Nevertheless, photos from training showed
Rahman alongside the likes of Cesc
Fabregas, Danny Drinkwater and new
signing Kylian Hazard at Cobham.
Chelsea take on Leicester City at the King
Power Stadium after the international break
and will be hoping to build on consecutive
wins in the Premier League.
