The forward has endured a difficult season but delivered a firm thumbs as he made his way into the building, suitcase in hand.
Reece James was a slight surprise to be named in Tuchel's squad as he continues to attempt to maintain his fitness for an extended period. But few have as intimate a knowledge of what the Chelsea captain is capable of as the former boss of the west London side.
Fresh faces, Dan Burn, who scored at Wembley to spark his hometown club to Carabao Cup glory little under 24 hours ago, was showing no ill-effects as he arrived for his first England call-up.
