Internationals: Where Chelsea's players will be during the November international break
Chelsea's players will split up this week for the November international break, with many of the squad receiving call-ups to represent their countries.
Enzo Maresca's side head into the international period following a 1-1 draw against Arsenal in the Premier League. The point saw Chelsea climb up the table into third place, ahead of the Gunners on goal difference.
The Chelsea head coach was pleased for Chelsea's fans after a difficult couple of years since the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital ownership took over at Stamford Bridge.
A remarkable statistic emerged after the London derby draw: 'Chelsea will end a day in the top three places of the Premier League table for the first time since the final day of the 2021-22 season'.
