Chelsea forward Jamie Gittens will be out longer than first expected. The club had hoped to have the winger back on the pitch this month. Instead, he will not return until the second half of November. The setback leaves Chelsea short of attacking options during a busy run of fixtures. Gittens joined the London side from Borussia Dortmund over the summer. Coach Enzo Maresca will have to rotate his forwards without one of the summer signings. No exact date has been given for his return, only the broad November window.
