DORTMUND, Germany (Reuters) - Chelsea's Raheem Sterling is back in training but will not be ready for their Champions League last-16 first leg at Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday, coach Graham Potter said on Tuesday.

Sterling took a knock to his knee in training last week, making him the eighth Chelsea player to be sidelined with injury along with fellow forwards Christian Pulisic and Armando Broja and long-term absentees N'Golo Kante and Edouard Mendy.
