3 players added to Chelsea’s squad for Conference League knockouts

Chelsea have updated their squad for the Conference League knockout phase, with Cole Palmer, Trevoh Chalobah and Mathis Amougou all included, according to BBC’s Nizaar Kinsella.

Palmer, who missed the league phase, has now been added, while Chalobah joins the squad after being recalled from his loan at Crystal Palace.

New signing Amougou also makes the list as Chelsea prepare for the knockout rounds.

However, Romeo Lavia and Wesley Fofana remain excluded from the squad due to long-term injuries.

Both players are expected to be sidelined for several months, with Fofana likely out for the remainder of the season.
