Charly Musonda feels he's close to a playing return at Chelsea.
Musonda, now aged 23, took to Instagram on Wednesday to emotionally reveal how he has struggled to play consecutive games in the last four years and why he still hasn't played a game for the Blues in the last three.
He wrote: "It's been four years since I played back to back professional games, three years since I last played for my club, two of those last four years, I've been injured with the post cruciate ligament of my knee.
"Nothing but heartbreak and heartache. Doctors told me going through surgery after being out for so long would be the end, an impossible mountain to climb, were the exact words.
"I miss football so much, to say the least, and I'm doing everything I can to play once again, to all the kids out there who have a dream and are injured or are going through monumental setbacks, never give up!
"I'll keep climbing the insurmountable mountain everyday to run with the football once again, because there's no better feeling than taking someone on and feeling alive.
"Until that day comes I'll keep training and believing in the impossible comeback, because the greatest comebacks always seem like there is no way back, and that's when we've got to dig deep and live to tell the story and not die in it."
