Baba Rahman to return to Chelsea in January

Chelsea will recall Baba Rahman from his loan spell at Schalke in January, according to reports.

Sky Deutschland, as cited on Calciomercato, claim that the player will be returning to London in the new year.

Rahman had remained at Schalke over the summer in a bid to beat off his latest string of injuries, but he has since found game time hard to come by this season.

The Ghanian defender has yet again been troubled by injuries which have derailed his development.

Rahman first moved to Germany on loan during Antonio Conte’s time in charge of the Blues and it remains to be seen if he has a long-term future at Stamford Bridge.

While he is now expected to return to the club in January, it is unlikely he will break into Maurizio Sarri plans anytime soon, with another loan move away from the club the most likely outcome for the defender.
