N’Golo Kante and Christian Pulisic will miss Chelsea’s clash with Zenit St. Petersburg on Tuesday.

Both players have been ruled out through injury.

“Christian did not train with us today,” Tuchel revealed at his pre-match press conference.

“We said that we were looking for him to return after the international break and for him to have that period of 10 days of training and recovery before returning to the pitch. He’s still in a state of recovery and individual training, so he is not ready just yet.

“N’Golo had two training sessions yesterday and trained again today, but the Champions League game comes a bit too early for him. We won’t take the risk with him now at this moment of the season.

“We have decided to give him another load in training tomorrow, then he will have the day off with the rest of the group and then train with us all on Friday to be ready totally for Tottenham on Sunday.” (Tribal Football)
