Chelsea injury news: Latest updates on Mendy, James and Ziyech ahead of Sevilla clash

Billy Gilmour

Young midfielder Gilmour is making good progress after undergoing knee, according to Lampard, and could be looking at a November return.

“He is progressing well,” Lampard confirmed before the Southampton draw. “It was forecast as a four-month injury when he went into surgery, so we are looking at about four weeks from now that he will hopefully be fit, barring any hiccups.

“It has been a difficult injury. His attitude and everything he approaches in his professional life is spot on so he hopefully should be four weeks.

“He will be an important member of the squad at that point. We all know his breakthrough last year and what he gave to the group and we hope to see much more of that.”
