Frank Lampard provides injury update on Billy Gilmour

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has provided a positive injury update on Billy Gilmour ahead of the Champions League clash against Sevilla.

Gilmour picked up a serious knee injury during the final weeks of the previous season and he had to undergo a surgery to sort the concern.

In a press conference on Monday, Lampard confirmed that Gilmour has made good progress in his recovery and he is currently working on the field with the physios.

He added that the Blues graduate will be integrated into training with either the senior squad or Under 21s in the near future and he could play for them after the next international break.

"Billy is working really well. He’s probably three or four weeks away from his return. He’s working outside with the physios at the moment, " He told via Chelseafc.com.

"We hope to integrate him into training with either ourselves or the Under-21s at some point soon. We are probably looking at the other side of the next international break with Billy, all being well."
