Romelu Lukaku back on training pitch as Chelsea players return from week off

Chelsea have confirmed that Romelu Lukaku has returned to training after picking up an ankle injury in the Malmo game around a month ago.

So far, the Belgian is only pictured running solo around the pitch even though those Chelsea players who have not been called up for international duty are back from a week off as well:

Lukaku was always expected to be back in action after the international break, so it's encouraging to see him sticking to the schedule.

The Blues are taking on Leicester, Juventus and Man United in the next three games, so Thomas Tuchel will need all the help he can get from his players - Lukaku's return would be a massive boost.
