Makes progress, still weeks away
Gittens (ankle) remains a few weeks away from returning, though coach Xabi Alonso said he's "closer" to returning, according to Bobby Vincent of Football London.
Analysis: Gittens has yet to feature in the 2026/27 season and is not yet expected to be an option, perhaps aiming to return to a bench role in the final weeks of the calendar year. Alonso's words suggest the attacker is making progress in his recovery, but for now his continued absence keeps him out of the mix for attacking minutes until he is cleared to return. All of Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers and Pedro Neto will remain the primary options on Chelsea's wide attacking rotation, which is likely to remain the case even after Gittens regains health.
Still weeks away from return
Gittens (ankle) remains sidelined and is expected to miss several more weeks, according to coach Xabi Alonso. "Not yet [ready], it's still a few weeks."
Analysis: Gittens continues recovering from the ankle injury he sustained while representing England U21 against Kazakhstan, which forced him off at halftime. The winger has yet to make a Premier League appearance this season, with his latest setback further delaying his return to competitive action. Having already struggled with two previous hamstring injuries, Gittens faces another period on the sidelines before he can compete for a place in Chelsea's attack. Cole Palmer, Morgan Rogers and Pedro Neto remain the main attacking options in his absence.
