​Swansea boss confident Baston will make Chelsea debut

Swansea boss Francesco Guidolin is confident record-signing Borja Baston will make his debut against Chelsea.

The 24-year-old, who signed for a club-record fee of £15.5m from Atletico Madrid this summer, has been out with thigh injury.

"Borja has stepped up his recovery and has now rejoined the full group on the training field," said Guidolin told the club's website.

"He is progressing well and if things continue as they are, I am confident he will be available for selection for the visit of Chelsea."
