Moses, Two Nigerian Defenders Train With Chelsea First Team Ahead Of Watford Game
Published: August 20, 2016
Nigerian trio Victor Moses, Ola Aina and Fikayo Tomori trained with the first team of Chelsea on Friday, ahead of their clash with Watford at Vicarage Road.
It means the three players are available for selection for the Premier League match against the Hornets.
On the opening day of the season, Moses and Aina were included in the Blues’ 18-man squad while England U19 international Tomori was not considered.
Only the Super Eagles star was given a run out against West Ham, having come off the bench in the last five minutes, while Aina was an unused sub, but everything is pointing to the fact that he will make his competitive debut before the end of this year.
Defender Tomori made his first appearance for Chelsea on the final day of last season against champions Leicester City.
