Chelsea's deadline day signing Papy Djilobodji left out of Champions League squad

Papy Djilobodji has been omitted from Chelsea's Champions League squad

CHELSEA has omitted new signing Papy Djilobodji from their Champions League squad.

 

The Senegal defender was signed on deadline day from Nantes.

He was the apparent back up option after a move for John Stones fell through.

The Blues had four bids rejected for Stones - the last of which reached £38million.

And Djilobodji signed for around £3million having already been rejected by at least three Premier League sides this summer.

But Mourinho had already axed him from his plans, in Europe at least.

Bertrand Traore and Kenedy have been included.
