Frank Lampard reveals Kai Havertz’s first match after recovering from Covid-19

Frank Lampard believes Kai Havertz will be in contention to face Rennes on Tuesday after missing two weeks with the coronavirus.

The 21-year-old got a positive test for Covid-19 shortly before the last Champions League clash with the French club and he was self-isolating at home until last week.

The Germany international is reportedly training at home on an exercise bike after recovering from mild symptoms associated with the virus.

Despite his training being disrupted, Havertz could be set to feature as Blues could qualify for the knockout phase with a win in the match at Roazhon Park.

Lampard said:”I hope he is available. He’s been in for two, three days training doing some individual work and he looks pretty good.

“Kai is a naturally fit boy. I hope to have him travelling with us to Rennes on Tuesday. Maybe get some minutes. I’m not sure how many because it was two-week isolation but he looks in good shape.”
