Chelsea leave Djordje Petrovic out of Club World Cup squad despite no deal for Mike Maignan
It remains to be seen whether Chelsea revisit their interest in the French goalkeeper later in the window, but the club have reiterated their faith in Robert Sánchez, Filip Jorgensen and Mike Penders, who have all been included in the Club World Cup squad. A number of clubs are interested in signing Petrovic permanently this summer and his Chelsea future is now in some doubt. It will be up to the 25-year-old to decide whether he wants guaranteed first-team football. Chelsea's interest in Maignan had put the future of Sánchez in doubt, but the club believe he improved through the season and saved the team at least nine points, which were crucial to their qualification for the Champions League. Jorgensen helped Chelsea win the Europa Conference League in his first season at the club, while 19-year-old Penders is rated as one of the brightest prospects in Europe. Fifa rules dictate that any player named in a Club World Cup squad is then cup-tied for the remainder of the tournament, should they move to a club also in the competition, regardless of whether he has made an appearance. The transfer window for the Club World Cup shut at 7pm on Tuesday night, but clubs can register new players to take part in the later stages of the tournament from June 27 to July 3. Benfica are believed to be interested in re-signing Felix and his omission from Chelsea's squad means he could play for the Portuguese club later in the tournament if he joined before July 3. Felix, Sterling and Disasi will all be allowed to leave Stamford Bridge this summer. Chelsea increased their £35 million offer for winger Jamie Gittens to £42 million before the Club World Cup transfer deadline, but Borussia Dortmund rejected the offer. Chelsea remain in talks with Dortmund over Gittens and could still sign the 20-year-old this month, or later in the summer window. Dortmund have been demanding a fee in excess of £50 million for the player.

Maresca fumes as Betis get 48-hour Conference League final advantage
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca said on Tuesday that he was unhappy after LaLiga accepted a request from Real Betis to move their final league game forward two days to Friday, giving the club more time to prepare for the Conference League final. Chelsea visit fellow Champions League hopefuls Nottingham Forest for their final Premier League game of the season on Sunday, two days after Conference League final opponents Betis play Valencia. "I'm not happy, 100 per cent, you cannot allow another team 48 hours more when you play a European final," Maresca told reporters. "(Either we play Friday) or they play Sunday like us. I don't know if it is from LaLiga, the Premier League or UEFA, but if you ask people in this room if it is normal to play a final where another team has 48 hours more to prepare, it is not normal." Maresca also confirmed that Filip Jorgensen would start in goal for Chelsea in the Conference League final. The 23-year-old Swedish-Danish keeper has started all but one game in the competition. Spaniard Robert Sanchez has been Chelsea's first-choice keeper in the Premier League, playing 31 games this season. "Filip is going to play the final because he played all the competition. It will be unfair now if he doesn't play the final. For sure, Filip is going to play because he deserves to play," Maresca said. Strikers Christopher Nkunku and Marc Guiu remain doubtful for the showdown in the Polish city of Wroclaw on May 28 due to injury. "Guiu and Nkunku are in the sessions but are still not 100 per cent," Maresca said. "For each game, we try to play our strongest XI. In the Conference League, we have played with different players and we will see for the final," he added. Chelsea, fourth in the Premier League with 66 points, are chasing their first trophy under Maresca. The West London club appointed the Italian in June after he guided Leicester City to the English Championship title in his first season in charge. The final is also a chance for Chelsea to add another major European trophy to their collection, having won the Champions League, Europa League, Cup Winners' Cup and Super Cup all twice each.
