Christian Pulisic will miss Chelsea’s Premier League trip to Arsenal after testing positive for Covid-19.
The USA forward missed Chelsea’s open training session on Wednesday, and is not available for Sunday’s game at the Emirates Stadium due to self-isolation.
Hakim Ziyech and N’Golo Kante are both back in training, and could yet prove their fitness in time to feature in the north London derby.

“So he was not in training and is not available for the game.”
Ziyech suffered a nasty-looking shoulder injury in Chelsea’s penalty shoot-out European Super Cup win over Villarreal, while Kante has been out of action with an ankle issue.
But both influential Blues players will now have the chance to prove their match fitness in Saturday’s training session ahead of the Arsenal clash.
