What happened. Chelsea submitted a 20-man Premier League squad list that does not include Estevao Willian, but he remains eligible because he is under 21.

• Players under 21 don't count toward the 25-man limit.
• Other youngsters like Josh Acheampong and Jorrel Hato also omitted.
• Chelsea have won both opening league matches.

Estevao can still feature in Premier League matches despite the omission.
