Danny Drinkwater has trained for the first time since been charged with drink driving after the out-of-favour Chelsea midfielder crashed his car minutes after leaving a party early on Monday morning.
The former Leicester is said to have crashed his Range Rover into a Skoda at approximately 12.30am, hours before the Blues 2-0 win over West Ham at Stamford Bridge.
Drinkwater has returned to training though and was pictured taking part in a light session at the club's Cobham base on Tuesday.

Players who were not involved in the game at Stamford Bridge on Monday night were put through their paces by Maurizio Sarri and Drinkwater could be seen in action.
The crash involving Drinkwater left debris scattered across the country road while a fence was also flattened.
In a statement, Cheshire Police said: 'A 29-year-old from Nether Alderley has been charged with drink driving following an incident in Cheshire.
'Danny Drinkwater, of Bollington Lane, was arrested shortly after 12.30am on Monday 8 April following a one-vehicle collision on Ashley Road in Mere.
'He has been released on unconditional bail and is set to appear at Stockport Magistrates' Court on Monday 13 May.'
Drinkwater and solicitor Beth Mantel, who he is said to have been travelling with at the time, were both treated for minor injuries along with Emma Brown, 30, who was driving the Skoda.
He and Mantel had attended a charity event in an upmarket bar called Victors in Hale, Greater Manchester, approximately six miles away from Drinkwater's home, according to The Sun.
Mantel has been contacted by Mailonline for comment.

A source said: 'It was a really nasty crash. Danny had been seen having a great night at the bar but it ended horribly. Pieces of the car he hit went flying.
'Danny's been partying like mad recently but hopefully this will be a wake up call telling him to slow down.'
Drinkwater has played only once for Chelsea this season in the Community Shielf clash against Manchester City – which he lost.
The England international signed for the Stamford Bridge club after helping Leicester claim an historic Premier League title in the 2015-16 campaign.
But, following a £35million move from the Foxes, he has been on the periphery at Chelsea and is not fancied by boss Maurizio Sarri.
He has played just 23 times, scoring one goal, in two-and-a-half seasons at the club.
Drinkwater's only appearance for Chelsea this season was in the Community Shield in August
