London: Chelsea has announced their squad for the upcoming Conference League match against Astana. They’ve got a mix of youth and experience, with a focus on giving some young players a chance.
Coach Enzo Maresca decided to leave several senior players back in London. Big names like Jadon Sancho and Marc Cucurella won’t be making the long trip to Kazakhstan. Instead, they’re giving some of the academy graduates a shot.
One standout is Josh Acheampong, who might just make his first appearance in months. Maresca is excited about him, saying the club is close to finalizing a new contract. It sounds like they really value him.
Alongside Acheampong, Samuel Rak-Sakyi and Tyrique George are also looking to get more minutes on the pitch. It’s a great opportunity for these young talents to show what they can do.
The squad also includes some experienced players like Filip Jorgensen and Carney Chukwuemeka, but the focus is definitely on the fresh faces. Chelsea has been doing well in the Conference League, so they can afford to rotate their lineup a bit.
