Danny Drinkwater 

England international midfielder Danny Drinkwater will be hoping to play his first game for Chelsea on Wednesday night when the West Londoners host Everton in the Carabao Cup fourth round at the Bridge.

Chelsea’s midfield department has been heavily hit by a couple of injuries this League season and manager Antonio Conte is lining up a massive transfer move to bring another top-class midfielder into the mix.

The former Leicester City star completed a £35million switch to Chelsea from Leicester City on summer transfer deadline day but has not yet played for Chelsea after sustaining a calf injury in September.

The midfielder who has been struggling with a number of injuries recently since his transfer to Stamford Bridge has returned to training with the Blues first team at their Cobham training ground as he bids to play his first game of the season.

He has been spotted training with the first-team last week ahead of a first-team return to action and it looks like tonight’s League Cup clash with Everton at could be where fans will finally see Drinkwater make his Chelsea debut.

Conte’s men head into the match fresh from their impressive 4-2 comeback victory over Watford at the Bridge last Saturday.

The Blues will return to English Premier League action next weekend as the lock horns with AFC Bournemouth.
