Chelsea will field a 23-man squad to face Dinamo Zagreb in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night.

Despite winning the second leg against Champions Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, the Blues were eliminated from the competition in the quarter-finals last season.

Chelsea have confirmed their roster for tomorrow’s Champions League match against Dinamo Zagreb.

Chelsea bolstered their team by investing £272 million to buy Raheem Sterling, Kalidou Koulibaly, Wesley Fofana, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, among others.

However, despite starting every match so far this season, Thiago Silva did not travel with the squad for the Champions League opener.

Also, N’Golo Kante did not travel to Croatia due to a hamstring injury sustained against Tottenham Hotspur earlier this season.

New signings Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Denis Zakaria make the squad and could be in line for their Chelsea debuts.

Wesley Fofana could be in line for his second start after his debut against West Ham.

The Blues will be hoping to get a win in their first match of the competition.

Below are the Chelsea players that flew to Croatia on Monday ahead of the match.

Full squad:
Goalkeepers: Kepa Arrizabalaga, Marcus Bettinelli, Edouard Mendy,

Defenders: Trevo Chalobah, Ben Chilwell, Reece James, Kalidou Koulibaly, Cesar Azpilicueta, Marc Cucurella, Wesley Fofana,

Midfielders: Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Conor Gallagher, Mason Mount, Denis Zakaria, Carney Chukwuemeka,

Forwards: Raheem Sterling, Kai Havertz, Hakim Ziyech, Armando Broja, Christian Pulisic, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
