FIFA club world cup: Chelsea star returns to training

Chelsea star and England international Mason Mount has returned to training ahead of the Blues clash in the FIFA club world cup scheduled to take place on Wednesday in Abu Dhabi.

The reports revealed that Mount joined in Chelsea’s second training session as he did some light training with the rest of the squad before working individually as he builds up his fitness.

Mount missed Sunday’s training session, having felt pain during the Blues weekend win over Plymouth, but he was initially part of a squad of 21 players put through their paces by coaches Arno Michels and Zsolt Low on Monday afternoon as coach Thomas Tuchel remains absent.

The report revealed that the Blues will continue with their training session today as they prepare for their clash against Al Hilal of Saudi Arabia on Wednesday in the Club World Cup semi-final.

It is yet to be known if Mount will start for the Blues, but he could play from the bench.

Chelsea are tipped as a favourite to win the club world cup.
