Chelsea and France star N'Golo Kante could be back within a month after an injury layoff.
Kante has been absent for a significant spell, even missing the World Cup with his nation.
Per L'Equipe, Kante could be in action as early as February, as he continues his recovery.
Manager Graham Potter will be delighted to welcome Kante back into the fold.
He may be hoping the diminutive star is fit to play their Champions League last-16 ties in mid-February and early March.
Despite Chelsea splashing the cash in the winter, they do not have any player capable of offering a similar impact to what Kante brings to the team.
