R aheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell have both been left out of Chelsea's squad for their UEFA Conference League play-off against Swiss side Servette. The decision comes amid uncertainty surrounding their futures at the club.
Sterling, 29, was also absent from Chelsea's Premier League opener against Manchester City on Sunday, a game the Blues lost. His representatives released a statement prior to the match, expressing a desire for "clarity" regarding Sterling's future at the club.
Chelsea's head coach, Enzo Maresca, addressed Chilwell's situation last week, stating that the 27-year-old defender is free to leave the club if he chooses. This development suggests that Chilwell may be exploring opportunities elsewhere.
Chelsea will host Servette in the first leg of the play-off on Thursday, with the return leg scheduled for August 29 in Switzerland.
