Conte has confirmed John Terry and Branislav Ivanovic are fit to face West Ham in the EFL cup clash on Tuesday while Willian is also expected to return to the match squad.
Asked about Terry, Conte said: “He’s fit to start. He’s in a good shape. Tomorrow I’ll decide the starting XI but John is fit. He trained very well this week, last week, and he’s ready.
“For Ivanovic, he’s better. He started to train with us yesterday, also today, but it’s normal after an injury he needs a bit of time to find the right shape to come back with our squad.
“Cesc [Fabregas] is still not well. We must wait because he had a muscular problem and we are waiting. We must be patient because the muscular problem is tight. I hope to see him very soon with the team in the training session.
“Willy is in a good moment now [mentally]. Before the moment wasn’t good for him. You know the reason. He’s a fantastic man, a very good boy and we love him because he’s a fantastic man before a fantastic player.”
