Mauricio Pochettino has ruled two more players out of Chelsea’s Premier League clash with Tottenham.

Chelsea have been without several first-team stars in recent weeks, with the likes of Enzo Fernandez, Reece James, Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell sidelined with injury issues.

Speaking at his pre-Spurs press conference, Pochettino said he had ‘no good news’ on the injury front and confirmed Thiago Silva and Axel Disasi would also miss the Stamford Bridge clash on Thursday night.

Asked for an update on his squad, Pochettino said: ‘No good news because we cannot recall any players from the last [injury] list. And we need to add two more – Disasi and Thiago, they are not available for tomorrow.’
