The American forward injured an ankle while on international duty in early September against Honduras -- his sixth significant injury in his two-plus years at Chelsea.
The injury was only expected to keep him out for 10 days, but a series of setbacks has kept him out much longer, including missing all the U.S. matches during the October international window.
Chelsea posted a brief update on returning players -- Pulisic, N'Golo Kante, Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta -- along with photos of them at training.
The Premier League leaders plays Newcastle at St. James' Park on Saturday.
