Chelsea are set to name their final Premier League squad, with Frank Lampard having to omit several players.
The Blues have an array of talent to choose from after their big summer of spending in the transfer window.
Timo Werner, who netted his first Premier League goals against Southampton at the weekend, arrived from RB Leipzig, whilst Kai Havertz joined for a club record fee from Bayer Leverkusen.
Hakim Ziyech was signed from Ajax after several impressive seasons in the Eredivisie, whilst Edouard Mendy was snapped up as competition for Kepa Arrizabalaga.
Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva arrived to strengthen the back four, whilst the Blues managed to hold onto the likes of N'G
olo Kante, Olivier Giroud and Callum Hudson-Odoi despite speculation linking them with a move away in the summer.
Chelsea have already submitted their 25-man squad for the Champions League, and it is likely that the Premier League squad will be similar.
Danny Drinkwater could again miss out, with the former Leicester midfielder not currently part of Lampard's plans.
The 30-year-old has struggled since moving to Stamford Bridge from Leicester and loan spells at Aston Villa and Burnley have not reignited his career.
Baba Rahman could also be left out, after the full-back missed out on a loan move to the Championship on deadline day.
Rahman joined Chelsea in 2015 for a fee of £14 million from Augsburg, but has repeatedly been loaned out in the last five years.
Middlesbrough and Watford were both reportedly interested in signing the 26-year-old before the window closed, but a failure to secure a move has left the Ghanaian in the wilderness until January.
Dujon Sterling and Charly Musonda could also miss out, with the latter having spent the last two seasons on loan at Vitesse Arnhem.
Defender Sterling joined Wigan Athletic on a season-long loan last year, but a hamstring injury midway through the campaign limited the youngster to 10 outings for the Latics.
