Maurizio Sarri faces an injury crisis ahead of the trip to Baku

The Blues have been hit with injuries to key players in the build up, with Antonio Rudiger, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ruben Loftus-Cheek ruled out, while N’Golo Kante is fighting to be fit.Chelsea will also be unable to use returning loan stars like Reece James and Trevor Chalobah due to UEFA restrictions, which also makes new signing Christian Pulisic ineligible.Maurizio Sarri, therefore, could be forced to call on players who have never played for the club’s senior team in order to fill his bench for a European final.talkSPORT.com takes a look at who they might be.

Conor Gallagher, the 19-year-old midfielder, is probably the most likely player to get an opportunity.He was recently named Academy Player of the Year and featured during Chelsea’s friendly against New England Revolution last week.With Loftus-Cheek injured, Gallagher represents a natural replacement with his ability to drive from deep and score goals.
