Chelsea boast fully-fit squad for FA Cup final

Chelsea boast a fully-fit squad for Saturday's FA Cup final against Leicester.

Mateo Kovacic has shaken off a hamstring injury and N'Golo Kante is back after Achilles tendon pain.

Andreas Christensen has also beaten a leg tendon issue.

Jonny Evans faces a race to be fit for the Foxes' first FA Cup final since 1969.

Chelsea provisional squad: Arrizabalaga, Rudiger, Alonso, Christensen, Jorginho, Silva, Kante, Abraham, Pulisic, Werner, Caballero, Zouma, Kovacic, Mendy, Giroud, Mount, Hudson-Odoi, Chilwell, Ziyech, James, Azpilicueta, Havertz, Palmieri, Gilmour, Anjorin.
