Young player Jesse Derry had to be stretchered off the pitch after suffering a serious head injury in the recent 1-3 defeat against Nottingham Forest.
Alejandro Garnacho and Pedro Neto are still recovering from muscle injuries that kept them out of Premier League matchday 35.
Meanwhile, Jamie Gittens and Estevao are sidelined for the rest of the season due to injuries. Mykhailo Mudryk is also banned for violating anti-doping regulations.
Therefore, despite having spent over a billion pounds on player transfers, Chelsea currently lacks any experienced wingers.
Interim manager Calum McFarlane said: "I spoke to Jesse's father the night before. The initial indications were positive."
I worked with Jesse in the U21 team. He had a fantastic season. Hopefully Jesse will recover quickly and be fit to play for the team.
In the current circumstances, top scorer Joao Pedro is likely to be moved to the wing, making way for Liam Delap to play as a central striker in the away match against Liverpool.
Cole Palmer and Enzo Fernandez will play just behind Delap to support him. In addition, McFarlane could rely on the assistance of young players from the Chelsea academy.
Shim Mheuka (18 years old) just had an outstanding season in Premier League 2. In addition, 17-year-old Ryan Kavuma-McQueen is also considered extremely promising.
