Jorginho, Reece James and Timo Werner all doubts for Chelsea's trip to Watford

Published on: 30 November 2021

Chelsea will make late fitness calls on Jorginho, Reece James and Timo Werner ahead of their trip to Watford.

Thomas Tuchel has confirmed the trio are doubts for the Vicarage Road clash following training on Tuesday and decisions on their availability will be made after further checks.

Head coach Tuchel said: 'We have some players in doubt. Maybe some need a bit more time and examination to re-evaluate.

'Reece James, Timo Werner and Jorginho. They all trained today with us and there will be some last minute decisions about the three.'

The league leaders will already be without long-term injury absentees Ben Chilwell (knee), N'Golo Kante (knee) and Mateo Kovacic (thigh).

Tuchel also confirmed that Romelu Lukaku had experienced no negative reaction following his return from an ankle injury late on in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Manchester United.

'He had no reaction from his injured ankle. He is ready to progress in minutes for sure,' Tuchel said.
