Premier League side Chelsea have received good news from Turkey on one of their players loaned out this season.

According to several press reports including Milliyet, Victor Moses is nearing a return to fitness having resumed individual training at Fenerbahce this week.

The former Nigeria international has not been in action since he suffered a thigh muscle rupture injury on the opening day of the season against Gazisehir Gaziantep FK.

Assuming the winger does not suffer a relapse, his expected return date is September 23, meaning it is looking likely he will miss the Yellow Canaries first game after the international break against Alanyaspor.

The Fenerbahce number 11 was not available for selection against Istanbul Basaksehir FK  and Trabzonspor due to his ailment.

Moses impressed in his maiden appearance of the season, scoring a spot kick and setting up another goal as Fenerbahce hammered Gazisehir Gaziantep FK 5-0.

After match day three in the Super Lig, Fenerbahce sit second on the table with seven points.
