Chelsea are handed a boost ahead of Saturday's Club World Cup final against Palmeiras after Thomas Tuchel was cleared to attend the game in Abu Dhabi.

Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel has been cleared to attend Saturday's Club World Cup final against Palmeiras.

Last weekend, the German recorded a positive coronavirus test, preventing him from travelling to Abu Dhabi with the rest of the squad.

Zsolt Low, Tuchel's assistant coach, deputised as the European champions edged out Al-Hilal by a 1-0 scoreline on Wednesday evening.

However, it will be Tuchel who takes charge in the dugout on Saturday after making the trip to the Middle East on Friday.

Tuchel had also been forced to miss Saturday's FA Cup tie with Plymouth Argyle, with fellow assistant coach Arno Michels taking charge of that fixture.
