Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that Levi Colwill and Reece James will both be involved for the Blues against Newcastle United on Saturday.

Pochettino also said that there were no further injury concerns for players returning.

Colwill and James will feature at St James’ Park after withdrawing from the England squad due to injury and fitness concerns.

‘The last one back was Moi Caicedo, who arrived from Ecuador,’ said Pochettino. ‘They already know the starting 11 for tomorrow, but I’m not going to make that public yet. They all arrived in a normal condition so then it was just the decision to pick the starting 11.

‘Colwill is going to be in the squad. We’ll see tomorrow how much James can play. Reece is doing well, he’s at a very good level, he’s improving every day. We are so happy with him and hope that he can cope with the demand of 90 minutes and we’ll see tomorrow if he can cope with that. Now he is one player you know is going to play!’
