The German manager is hopeful the Senegalese shot-stopper will be fit in time for the showpiece event in Portugal next weekend.
Thomas Tuchel is optimistic about Edouard Mendy ahead of Chelsea’s Champions League final showdown with Manchester City.
Mendy has established himself as the Blues No 1 since moving to Stamford Bridge from Rennes for £22 million ($31m) last summer, recording 24 clean sheets in 44 games across all competitions.
The 29-year-old started again in Chelsea’s final game of the Premier League season against Aston Villa but had to be withdrawn at half-time with a rib injury, leaving Tuchel sweating on his fitness for next weekend’s European showpiece.
