Hazard returns to full training for Chelsea

Chelsea have been handed a huge injury boost, with Eden Hazard returning to full first-team training, as reported by the Daily Mail.

The Belgium winger has been nursing a lower back injury in recent weeks, with his last appearance for the Blues coming in their 2-2 home draw against Manchester United earlier in October.

Hazard was subsequently forced to sit out of Chelsea’s Europa League win against BATE Borisov, before being sidelined for the team’s comprehensive win away at Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday.

It’s unlikely that the former Lille man will return for the Blues’ Carabao Cup clash with Derby County on Wednesday, but he is now back in full training as he bids to be fit for Chelsea’s upcoming league fixture against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Hazard has enjoyed a productive season in Chelsea colours. In all competitions, he has found the net on eight occasions and has also contributed with a further three assists.
