A good start to the season for Chelsea has seen the Blues go unbeaten through four games, and manager Maurizio Sarri could not have wished for a better start to life in English football.
The international break comes at the wrong time in many ways for Chelsea, as they might fear losing their momentum after such a strong opening to the campaign.
Nevertheless, a great number of Chelsea’s squad have once again received the call from their national sides.
Spain – Kepa Arrizabalaga, Cesar Azpilicueta, Marcos Alonso, Alvaro Morata
This awesome foursome of Spanish talent will face both England and World Cup finalists Croatia in the brand new Nations League.
Italy – Davide Zappacosta, Emerson, Jorginho
Another pair of Nations League matches loom for the Italians, with Poland and Portugal waiting to get their chance at the Azzurri.
France – N’Golo Kante, Olivier Giroud
The Wold Champions will meet Germany in an enticing Nations League match on Thursday, before going toe-to-toe with the Netherlands three days later.
Wales – Ethan Ampadu
Despite his tender age, Ampadu is part of Ryan Giggs’ plans as Welsh manager. Nations League matches against Ireland and Denmark could present an invaluable opportunity for the versatile 17-year-old.
Belgium – Eden Hazard
The superstar will face off against Scotland in a friendly on Friday night, before hosting Iceland in the Nations League the following week.
Croatia – Mateo Kovacic
The World Cup finalists will try to move on from the pain of Moscow with a friendly against Portugal, followed by a Nations League encounter with Spain.
Denmark – Andreas Christensen
Despite an ongoing dispute between Danish players and their Football Association regarding pay, Christensen has been selected to play against Slovakia and Wales.
England – Ruben Loftus-Cheek
Loftus-Cheek retains his place in the England squad after a strong showing at the World Cup, which saw the midfielder participate in all three group stage matches. England will play Spain and Switzerland.
Germany – Antonio Rüdiger
The central defender could be called upon for the seismic match against France, but could also appear in the friendly against Peru next week.
Brazil – Willian
Friendlies against the United States and El Salvador will provide opportunities for Willian to keep his place in a competitive Brazilian XI.
