Antonio Conte says David Luiz will be back in the Chelsea squad to face West Brom on Saturday.

Luiz was dropped by Conte for Chelsea's 1-0 win over Manchester United on Nov. 5, with the Blues boss saying it was purely a "tactical decision."

However, in a news conference on Friday, Conte confirmed that Luiz will be involved against West Brom at The Hawthorns.

Conte reiterated dropping Luiz was a "technical decision," before adding: "Every single player has to accept my decision. It's normal. I'm hear to speak for my team ahead of an important game."
