Enzo Maresca has been handed a boost ahead of Chelsea’s game with Burnley after Pedro Neto was pictured in training on Monday.
Neto withdrew from the Portugal squad due to a groin issue which forced him to be taken off in the 3-0 win against Wolves.
The Portugal international has started every Premier League game this season, and has established himself as a key man for Maresca.

Updates had been few and far between on Neto, and with important games coming up against Barcelona and Arsenal at the end of the month, the Blues will certainly want him available.
The 25-year-old has had next to no injury problems since joining the Blues, a stark contrast to what he experienced during his time at Wolves.

However, Maresca has been handed a boost after Neto was pictured back in training at Chelsea’s Cobham base on Monday.
Providing Neto comes through training unscathed it appears he’ll be available for the trip to Burnley, and it hands Maresca a selection dilemma in the wide areas.
Neto has scored three goals and registered two assists in the league so far, and is in competition with Estevao on the right wing.

It’s not Just Neto who’s back in training, but Chelsea have also been boosted by the return of defender Benoit Badiashile.

Badiashile was pictured back in training last week, and the Frenchman had been expected to be out until December with a muscle injury suffered in the win against Liverpool.
The 24-year-old has made just three appearances this season, but has looked good when he’s been on the pitch, and given the uncertainty at centre back, if he can stay fit there’s an opportunity to become part of the first choice pairing.
