Striker Nicolas Jackson resumed training with Chelsea on Wednesday, the club announced on their official website. The Senegalese striker will be available to face Tottenham in the London derby on April 3rd after two months on the sidelines.

Good news for Chelsea. The Blues, after suffering from a lack of attacking fluency in the last two months, have a big boost ahead of the London derby

Maresca's side will be able to count on Nicolas Jackson to face Tottenham on April 3 at Stamford Bridge, a key match to stay in the top four of the Premier League. 

The Senegalese striker has been sidelined for two months after suffering a hamstring injury in the Blues' 2-1 win over West Ham in early February. 

Chelsea announced that the former Villarreal striker resumed training with the rest of the squad on Wednesday after the international break and all indications are that Maresca will be available against Spurs.
