Christopher Nkunku and Renato Veiga have been named in Chelsea's 20-man squad to take on Bournemouth this evening.

Both Blues players have been strongly linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge in recent days with plenty of interest from elsewhere. Bayern Munich have held talks with Chelsea over a move for Nkunku, football.london understands, with the Blues willing to sell the 27-year-old if they were to receive more than £60million for his services.

Meanwhile, Veiga has been strongly linked with a move to Borussia Dortmund. The Blues have held talks with the German club in recent days with a loan move being discussed but quickly shut down by the west Londoners.

If Veiga was to leave then it would be a permanent move with Chelsea wanting more than £20million for his signature. However, both have been named in the squad to take on Bournemouth in the Premier League tonight. The duo have been named on the bench against the Cherries.

Robert Sanchez returns to the Chelsea line-up after being left out in the FA Cup third round win over Morecambe. Moises Caicedo starts at right-back, although the Ecuadorian will move into midfield when the Blues have the ball.

Josh Acheampong starts his second successive Premier League match alongside Levi Colwill, with Marc Cucurella completing the back four. Romeo Lavia makes his first start for the Blues in well over a month after returning from injury, playing alongside Enzo Fernandez.

Noni Madueke comes in for Pedro Neto, with Cole Palmer and Jadon Sancho all playing behind Nicolas Jackson. Joao Felix has dropped to the bench despite scoring twice in the comfortable victory against Morecambe at the weekend.
