Blues boss Maresca confirmed that the goalkeeper to start in the final will be Filip Jorgensen, ahead of Robert Sanchez.
“Filip [Jorgensen] is going to play in the final [ of the Europa Conference League],” Maresca told reporters.
“He’s played all competition and it would be unfair to take him out [from the final] now.“It will be him plus ten Chelsea players, I am not sure who else will play,” he stated.
