I’d like to give Baba Rahman an opportunity but he is struggling to recover: Chelsea boss Antonio Conte

Published on: 02 January 2018

Chelsea Manager Antonio Conte says he is not sure of Ghana international Baba Rahman's future at the club.

According to him, he doesn't know what comes next for Baba who has just recovered from a long injury lay off. Rahman has been out of action for a very long time after sustaining a knee injury at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

He has started training but  Antonio Conte insists Rahman is still not ready for action as he has not recovered fully.

“This is a good question. This player is coming from a bad injury. He’s struggling a bit to recover [for] the best form. I must be honest, I don’t know what will happen with Baba. About the human aspect, I’d like to give him an opportunity” Conte said at his Pre-match conference on Friday.

Antonio Conte also disclosed that he will do everything to help Baba Rahman to come back stronger. “Now, he has to face his recovery. He’s showing great patience and working a lot. If I can help him I will, because there is the player and then the human aspect” he noted.
