According to the Athletic, Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen broke his finger in training.
The Dane had to undergo surgery to insert splints and will be available as we return to action against Aston Villa on Saturday.
It will come as welcome news to the Blues who currently lead the battle for 4th spot. We will need all hands available to keep the likes of Manchester United ay bay for the remainder of the season.
With key players back fit, the likes of United and Tottenham Hotspur will look at an assault for the coveted spot that we currently occupy.

The defence has been a weak spot for us this season. The lack of clean sheets has heaped more pressure on the likes of Tammy Abraham to score goals.
Hopefully, we can do better in the coming weeks and ensure we go into next season with the UEFA Champions League on the table.
Chelsea are clear of their nearest competitors by three points. We can potentially extend it to six points if we defeat Villa and other results go our way.
With us yet to face the top three, not to mention the likes of West Ham United and Watford, we cannot afford to slip up in spite of a tough schedule.
United take on Tottenham in the standout fixture this weekend. Jose Mourinho can do us a favour by handing the Red Devils a defeat.
