Latest Chelsea injury news with 11 missing Everton amid Enzo Fernandez and Axel Disasi blow

Chelsea's injury problems have continued to increase ahead of Monday night's Premier League clash with Everton at Stamford Bridge after three new casualties were added to Mauricio Pochettino's list of absentees.

The story of the Argentine's first season at the club has constantly contained injuries and inconsistency on the pitch. After defeating Manchester United in a thriller last week, the Blues failed to defeat rock bottom Sheffield United three days later.

Next up for Chelsea is the visit of relegation-battling Everton on Monday night. The Toffees ended a torrid run without a win last weekend by beating Burnley 1-0 but they remain just two points above the bottom three afterbeing docked two points for breaching FFP rules.

Unfortunately for Pochettino, he could face being without a whole XI for this weekend's game. On Friday it was confirmed that Raheem Sterling, Axel Disasi and Enzo Fernandez joined the list of absentees, three players who have regularly played this season.

According to the club's weekly injury round-up, Sterling is 'absent due to illness' alongside goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. Disasi and Fernandez are doubts due to knocks.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference on Friday, Pochettino admitted he was unsure if they would feature on Monday. «We'll see. They are under assessment,» he said. «They have different types of issues. We don't believe they are big issues but we will see if they can be available.
