Romelu Lukaku was back in Chelsea training after suffering an injury scare with Belgium.

The 28-year-old played no part in the UEFA Nations League third-place play-off against Italy as a precaution.

Chelsea initially allowed Lukaku to return to Belgium for recovery.

But with a clash against Brentford on Saturday, Lukaku was back at Cobham with his teammates.

It is a huge boost for Thomas Tuchel, who was sweating over his fitness.

However, Antonio Rudiger did not take part in training after injuring his back with Germany.
