Ben Chilwell offered Chelsea olive branch after failing to land move

Ben Chilwell could make a return to the Chelsea first-team squad after failing to secure a move to a new club in the summer transfer window.

The full-back was left in limbo at the start of the campaign as the club tried to offload him in order to trim down their bloated squad.

The 27-year-old had been offered to Manchester United, but the Blues could not find a club that would buy him or take him on loan for the rest of the season.

Chilwell trained away from the main squad along with the rest of the so-called Bomb Squad who Enzo Maresca deemed surplus to requirements. The Italian says the England international may return to the fold now that there is no prospect of him leaving STamford Bridge until January at least.
