Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata has been ruled of the Blues’ game against Huddersfield tomorrow night.
The Spaniard was ruled out by Antonio Conte, who said:
Morata is out, because he’s a bit tired and there is a problem in his back. He is out.
The problem comes after a busy run of games for the summer signing from Real Madrid.
Morata could return for the visit of Southampton this weekend as he continues to be assessed ahead of a busy schedule.
Elsewhere, Danny Drinkwater has returned to full fitness and is in line to come back into the side after struggling with a fever which kept him out of the weekend’s trip to face West Ham.
David Luiz remains out as he struggles with a knee problem which has seen him sidelined for the past couple of weeks.
With the games coming thick and fast, you can expect Conte to rotate a number of his players for the game and that will start with Morata.
