Absent in the FA Cup this Saturday with Chelsea, Christopher Nkunku was injured in the hip and could quickly return.
Knee surgery in August, just before starting the season, Christopher Nkunku saw the start of his adventure with Chelsea delayed. Returning on December 24 against Wolverhampton, the French international even scored his first goal before going on to play three other matches, including a start against Crystal Palace.
