REECE JAMES is back to peak fitness and Enzo Maresca insists the Chelsea captain is ready to play three times in a week.
The 25-year-old struggled with persistent muscular problems throughout the 2022/23 and 2023/24 seasons, missing a whopping 72 games over that two-year period.
James, though, decided to have surgery ona hamstring in December 2023 to try to fix the recurring problem.
Since returning 11 months ago, he has been an ever-present figure under Maresca, though the Chelsea head coach has had to manage his playing time.
