Chelsea midfielders N’Golo Kante and Ruben Loftus Cheek as well as forward Armando Broja did not travel with the squad for the pre-season tour and here is why.
Following the official release from Chelsea FC of the 29 man list of players that would be representing the club for the pre-season tour the absence of N’Golo Kante, Armando Broja and Ruben Loftus Cheek was not missed by fans who could not help but wonder why the players had not made the cut.
In an official statement on the site of Chelsea FC it was stated that the two players could not join the others for the pre-season tour due to their COVID vaccination status.
Armando Broja on the other hand would join the squad in the US in the coming week.
