Trevor Chalobah may have sealed his place in Thomas Tuchel's squad with his stunning goal against Crystal Palace over the weekend.
The 22-year-old launched a long-range shot from 25-yards out in the Blues 3-0 win in their opening league game at Stamford Bridge.
Chalobah was also part of the team that edged Villarreal out on penalties to win the UEFA Super Cup earlier this month - meaning he has made two appearances for the west London club.
