Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne is being considered as a major doubt to face Chelsea in December.
Kristof Terreur reports that the former Blues midfielder is unlikely to make his return as he continues to suffer from a knee injury.
Ligament problems have kept him sidelined since the beginning of November, but he had previously hoped to return in time for the meeting with his old club.
However, that no longer looks possible with Manchester City unwilling to risk the player’s fitness with an early return.
Bernardo Silva or Ilkay Gundogan are expected to fill in for the player should he not return for the game.
The clash at Stamford Bridge will be another tough test for Maurizio Sarri’s men after a humbling defeat to Tottenham at Wembley last weekend.
Chelsea face Fulham on Sunday before a game against Wolves in a midweek fixture, with games coming thick and fast as we approach the festive period.
