Cole Palmer Chelsea

Chelsea and Tottenham have confirmed their updated Europa League and Conference League squads for the second half of the season.

After the January transfer window closed, teams were able to make three changes to the original 25-man squad named before the beginning of the league phase.

Chelsea breezed through the league phase and are the overwhelming favourites to go all the way in the Conference League, while Tottenham will also fancy themselves for the Europa League title after finishing fourth in the standings.

Chelsea Conference League squad: Palmer, Chalobah, Amagou in

The Blues’ exceptionally strong has been made even stronger after Enzo Maresca added talisman Cole Palmer to their list of players available.

Palmer was not named in Chelsea’s original squad to allow him to focus on Premier League action but now the competition is reaching the business end, they have their main man available again.

Trevoh Chalobah, who was recalled from his loan spell at Crystal Palace in January, also has a place in the team, as well as January signing Mathis Amougou.

Maresca has seen five players, including Joao Felix, Axel Disasi and Carney Chukwuemeka, depart in January, meaning the Italian will only have 22 players at his disposal for the knockout round.

Tottenham Europa League squad: Kinsky left out, Dragusin and Werner dropped

Tottenham have also made changes, with the Europa League one of two final chances for Ange Postecoglou to deliver a long-awated trophy in his second season.

The Australian have added defender Djed Spence and new signings Mathys Tel and Kevin Danso to their roster, but new goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky has been left out.

Fraser Forster also drops out of the goalkeeper options, with Radu Dragusin and Timo Werner the others to lose their places.
