Chelsea's Ben Chilwell enjoys emotional training ground reunion

Ben Chilwell could not stop smiling as he made a return to first team training at Chelsea after six months sidelined with a serious knee injury.

Chilwell suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury against Juventus in November and he had what was seen as season-ending knee surgery at the end of December.

Post surgery he vowed to 'work like a beast' in his rehab and seeing him return to the training pitch gave a lift to his team-mates, who applauded him out of the changing room and took turns to give him a hug.
