Available against Aston Villa Delap (shoulder) is back available for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa, coach Enzo Maresca said in the press conference, according to Kieran Gill from Daily Mail.

Impact Delap has fully recovered from his shoulder injury and is an option to face Aston Villa on Saturday.

Impact Delap is progressing well in his rehabilitation from the shoulder injury he suffered against Bournemouth and could be in line to be back available for next week's clash against Aston Villa. This is positive news for the Blues since he is a regular starter when fit and could be set for a decent role during the two last fixtures of the year if deemed fit enough to return. Joao Pedro is expected to replace him as the striker until he returns.

Impact Delap suffered a shoulder injury against Bournemouth that will sideline him for several weeks, although a precise timeline is not known at this stage. The striker was initially expected to miss six to eight weeks, but coach Enzo Maresca now suggests a two to four weeks recovery period before he can return. This would be good news for the Blues, as it indicates the number nine could return in early January rather than late January to reclaim his starting role in the frontline.

Avoids fracture Delap (shoulder) avoided a fracture, manager Enzo Maresca announced Monday. "Liam, fortunately, there is no fracture, which is good news."

Impact Delap is still expected to miss multiple weeks with the shoulder injury, but he seems likely to avoid surgery. Maresca refused to put any specific timeline on Delap's return, but it seems the injury isn't nearly as bad as it might have been.

Set to miss several weeks Delap (shoulder) is set to miss six to eight weeks due to injury, according to Alex Crook from talkSPORT.

Impact Delap suffered a shoulder injury in the first half of Saturday's draw against Bournemouth and is set to miss six to eight weeks to recover. This is a major blow for Chelsea since he was coming back from a two-months absence due to a hamstring injury and will now miss some more time. This will allow Joao Pedro to take a larger role in the frontline again while he is sidelined.

Off early Saturday Delap was off in the 31st minute of Saturday's match against Bournemouth due to an apparent shoulder injury.

Impact Delap would leave the field early Saturday and appear to have suffered a shoulder injury, as the forward was viewed holding his arm in a sling. This is rough for the forward after he has already missed over a month of action earlier in the season due to injury, hoping to avoid another absence. He will be set for further testing in the coming days, with Joao Pedro as a likely replacement if he misses further time after only being an option from the bench Saturday.
