Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, has said he expects two members of his squad to ask to leave the Premier League club when the January window opens.
Ben Chilwell and Carney Chukwuemeka have barely featured under Maresca who arrived in the summer.
Chilwell has played only 45 minutes in the Carabao Cup all season and Chukwuemeka has made a single start in the UEFA Conference League.
Speaking ahead of Chelsea’s trip to Chelsea this Sunday, Maresca said: “There are players that unfortunately didn’t play a lot with us in all the competitions, like Chilwell, like Carney.
“Probably they’re the first that will want to leave because they work every day because they want to play.
“If they don’t play probably they are thinking to leave. Each player has a different situation so we’ll see if anyone knocks the door and says I want to leave. We’ll try to find a solution.”
