Romelu Lukaku, Hakim Ziyech and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang are due to return to Chelsea on Tuesday after having their scheduled comeback dates pushed back once again.
The trio had an extra day added to their allowed absence from the club’s HQ while their futures remain up in the air.
They were originally due back last week but are being given additional time to explore possible moves and were not required to return to Cobham until after the squad departed for their pre-season tour in the US on Monday as they are not in boss Maurico Pochettino’s plans.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will go another day without returning to training as he looks to resolve his playing future
Marseille are in talks with Aubameyang, and Ziyech’s deal to Saudi Arabia fell through, but the Moroccan winger is still poised to leave.
Chelsea has been in talks with Juventus and Al Hilal about signing Lukaku, but his preferred choice of returning to Inter Milan has been ruled out when they dropped their interest.
The out-of-form striker is not believed to be in Mauricio Pochettino’s plans.
Pochettino picked a 29-man team for the trip to the United States, while Reece James was unable to go due to illness and will join the squad later.
Wesley Fofana has been sidelined with a knee injury. Marcus Bettinelli, Benoit Badiashile, and Armando Broja will also be in Cobham working on their fitness.
Summer signings Christopher Nkunku, Nicolas Jackson, Malo Gusto, Angelo Gabriel, and Diego Moreira were included, as was January addition Andrey Santos, who went out on loan after joining.
