Chelsea striker Didier Drogba will make his return from concussion during tomorrow's Carling Cup tie with Fulham.

Chelsea have confirmed that striker Didier Drogba will return to the squad for tomorrow's Carling Cup tie with Fulham at Stamford Bridge.

The Ivory Coast international has not featured for the Blues since suffering concussion after a clash with Norwich City goalkeeper John Ruddy last month.

Youngsters Josh McEachran, Ryan Bertrand, Romelu Lukaku and Oriol Romeu have also been named in the squad.

"AVB [Andre Villas-Boas, manager] lists McEachran, Bertrand, Lukaku and Romeu as young players to face Fulham. Drogba will also be involved," said Chelsea's official Twitter account.

Chelsea last won the League Cup in 2007.
