Chelsea are reportedly in line to receive an injury boost in the coming weeks with regards to Benoit Badiashile.
The Blues have just concluded the winter transfer window without making any additions in the defensive third of the pitch.
However, the green light was given for Renato Veiga, Axel Disasi and Ben Chilwell to all go out on loan, rather than retain the depth of Enzo Maresca’s options at the back.
