Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino ahead of the Blues’ weekend match vs Burnley has confirmed that Moises Caicedo and Mykhailo Mudryk are included in his side’s squad for the Premier League tie.

However, Pochettino believed that Romeo Lavia would not feature in Chelsea’s clash against Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday.

Speaking during his pre-match press conference on Friday, the Argentine also provided an update on Carney Chukwuemeka, Ben Chilwell, and Reece James.

“[Caicdeo and Mudryk are] both in the squad [to face Burnley]. We will decide later whether they have a chance for the start,” Pochettino said.

“[Chukwuemeka] was close to joining us last week. This week he has trained well, [but] I still have not decided. I need to check with the medical staff as I’m straight from the training pitch and 30 minutes late to the press conference. I am sorry for that.

“[Lavia] is still not running. After the international break, he is not going to be ready.”

He added: “It is difficult. I am not a doctor. It is about judging day-by-day; we cannot say the period he [Chilwell] will be out.

“He [James] was training with the group. It is a shame he is banned for tomorrow but we are really happy with the way he is recovering.”
