Contrary to reports that Victor Moses could make a return to action on Sunday against Manchester United, Club Manager, Antonio Conte says Moses has 'zero chance' of being fit to face Manchester United.  The Nigeria international who was recently nominated for the African Player of the year award by Confederation of African Football sustained hamstring injury in October in the game against Crystal Palace and has since failed to make a comeback.


In his pre-match conference, Conte told reporters Moses would miss the game against Manchester United as there was no possibility of regaining fitness. According to him "Moses’ injury was a bad injury, a bad muscular problem. We have to wait and have patience. He needs more time before he recovers.”


Following the absence of Moses, Conte has continued to experiment players including new entrant, Davide Zappacosta, Antonio Rudiger and Cesar Azpilicueta on the wingback with minimal result.


Apart from Moses, N'golo Kante has declared himself half-fit for the encounter although the medical staff said he was fully fit and ready for selection.
