In a recent press conference, Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino provided an encouraging update on the fitness of Christopher Nkunku and Harvey Vale Colwill, hinting that the duo might be available for selection in the upcoming fixture against West Ham United.
Pochettino expressed his optimism, stating, "Finally, they are so close to being available."
Both Nkunku and Colwill have been sidelined due to injuries, much to the disappointment of Chelsea fans.
However, Pochettino's comments have sparked hope among supporters that the talented youngsters could soon make their return to the pitch.
Maybe for Sunday against West Ham, we hope they will be ready," Pochettino revealed.
However, he remained cautious, emphasizing that the final decision would depend on the players' ability to cope with the demands of the competition.
But still, we will wait before we decide if they can cope with the competition," he added.
Harvey Vale Colwill, on the other hand, is a promising young talent who has caught the eye with his performances for Chelsea's youth teams.
The 18-year-old midfielder has been earmarked for a bright future at Stamford Bridge, and his potential return from injury will be welcomed by both the coaching staff and the fans alike.
Colwill's energy and enthusiasm could inject a fresh impetus into Chelsea's midfield, offering Pochettino another dynamic option in the center of the pitch.
Chelsea's clash against West Ham United is set to be a crucial fixture in their pursuit of silverware this season.
With both teams vying for a place in the top four of the Premier League, the stakes are high, and every point is vital.
Pochettino will be keen to have as many options available to him as possible as he looks to navigate a challenging run-in.
