The quest of Chelsea Football Club to advance to the next semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League have received a huge boost.
The Blues first team defender, Thiago Silva returned to training ahead of the first-leg clash against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday, April 13th, 2023. The Brazilian suffered an injury in the Premier League game against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.
Both teams are meeting in the knock-out stage for the third consecutive season. Chelsea beat Real Madrid en route to the semi-finals during the 2020/21 season while the Galacticos won the tie last season ( 2021/22).
Chelsea supporters will hope that the inclusion of Silva will give the team a good boost in the game against Madrid. Mason Mount and N'Golo Kante were also part of the team that trained today. The duo missed the trip to Wolves at the Milonuex over the weekend.
