Chelsea's New Signing Tosin Adarabioyo Left Out of Europa Conference League Squad

In a surprising turn of events, Tosin Adarabioyo has been reinstated to Chelsea's 22-man squad for their Europa Conference League match against Servette after being initially omitted due to an "admin error." The news was confirmed by Sky Sports' Kaveh Solhekol, who noted that the defender's absence was purely a technical oversight. The match at Stamford Bridge marks the first leg of a two-part playoff to secure a spot in the Conference League group stage, with the return leg scheduled for August 29 in Switzerland. Raheem Sterling's continued absence from the squad has sparked speculation regarding his future at Chelsea. The forward was also left out of the lineup for the recent match against Manchester City, leading to questions about his role within the team. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca addressed Sterling's exclusion, stating, "I want Raheem Sterling, but we have 30 players, and there is no space for all of them." He emphasized that the decision was purely technical and promised further clarification in the coming days. Additionally, Ben Chilwell's omission from the squad has fueled rumors of a potential transfer, adding to the uncertainty surrounding several players at the club. Meanwhile, Conor Gallagher has officially completed his transfer to Atletico Madrid, marking a significant move for the midfielder who had been with Chelsea since childhood. This transfer is part of a broader reshaping of the Chelsea squad as the summer transfer window progresses.
