Player or Coach? Is Sam Hutchinson On The Comeback Trail?

Last month we reported that Chelsea defender Sam Hutchinson may have been on the comeback trail after being spotted in training.

After retiring from professional football due to injury, Sam has still been involved with the club in a coaching capacity but signs that he may still have the hunger for something more continue.

Last night the talented defender captained the Chelsea reserves against Blackburn Rovers playing the whole game and turning in a strong performance.

The club described his appearance as part of his work towards his coaching badges but this does not ring true and nothing would make me happier to see Sam officially come out of retirement and find himself in contention for a first team place.

If anyone knows the true story of Sam’s plans please let us know, however in the meantime keep up the good work Sam, we are all rooting for you.
