He did not take part in Tuesday's group training session at Chelsea's Cobham training base and was reported to be working alone in a bid to prove his fitness. Striker Diego Costa did take part in training, having missed Saturday's 1-1 draw at home to Stoke City as a precaution due to a minor tendon problem. Kenedy and Pedro Rodriguez, who have been troubled by groin and hamstring problems respectively, were also present.
