Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has returned to training following a period of self-isolation.
The 30-year-old tested positive for Covid-19 last month, meaning that he missed the Champions League fixture with Juventus and the game against Southampton in the Premier League.
As a result, Kante was also not included in France's squad for their Nations League fixtures this month.
Chelsea have today released a statement on their website which reads: "N'Golo Kante returned to training following his period of isolation from Covid-19.
"The French midfielder tested positive for Covid ahead of our Champions League trip to Juventus but after completing his period of self-isolation, he is now clear to resume training.
"Kante trained away from the main group today, working on his fitness with a number of individual drills, with the aim to integrate him back into things after the international break."
Kante, who also struggled with a groin injury earlier this season, will now be aiming to get himself match fit and ready for Chelsea's trip to Brentford when the Premier League returns on October 16. body check tags ::
