Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell are missing from Chelsea’s UEFA squad for the Conference League play-offs – as doubts grow over the futures of experienced stars at Stamford Bridge

Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell have not been included in Chelsea’s squad submitted to UEFA for Thursday’s Conference League play-off first leg against Servette.

The fact that they are not on the club’s A-list is further indication that they could leave this summer.

Chelsea must win their two matches against the Swiss side to secure European football for the rest of the season.

Head coach Enzo Maresca will hold a press conference on Wednesday where he will find out more about the future of Sterling, 29, and Chilwell, 27.

Their departure means Chelsea’s young dressing room loses two experienced players.

Striker Armando Broja is expected to join Ipswich on loan, with an obligation to buy if they stay in the competition.

Meanwhile, Armando Broja is set to leave Chelsea for Ipswich.

It is expected to be a season-long loan with an obligation to buy the striker for around £30m, but that would only happen if the club avoids relegation from the Premier League.

Broja is a home-grown player and was previously valued at £50m by his club. However, last season’s loan to Fulham did Chelsea no favours as the 22-year-old failed to score a single goal.
