Chelsea XI vs Newcastle: No Sancho - Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Carabao Cup today

Jadon Sancho is not in the Chelsea squad for their Carabao Cup tie at Newcastle.

Enzo Maresca has made 11 changes at St James’ Park but there is no place for Sancho in the side or among the substitutes.

Sancho did not feature at the weekend, did not start in the Conference League last week and cannot play against Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday as part of the terms of his loan deal.

It looks like a three-man midfield including Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

Chelsea have just one player out injured, with Omari Kellyman out with a long-term hamstring injury.
