Tuchel: 'Jorginho to play through pain versus Leeds'

Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel says that Jorginho will "play through pain" in order to face Leeds United on Saturday afternoon.

Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel has suggested that Jorginho will "play through pain" to feature against Leeds United.

While the Italy international was rested for Wednesday's Champions League fixture at Zenit St Petersburg, he has played on with a back injury during recent weeks.

However, having trained over the past 48 hours, Tuchel has hinted that the midfielder will play a full part of Saturday's Premier League fixture at Stamford Bridge.

Speaking to reporters at a press conference, Tuchel said: "He did the last two training sessions, and I think he will do what he did for the last games, play through pain, and do what is needed to be on the pitch."

Tuchel also confirmed that Ben Chilwell, Trevoh Chalobah, Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante will remain unavailable for the visit of the Yorkshire giants.
