But following a thigh injury suffered by Essugo for which he has undergone surgery, the Argentine has now been added to the squad.

Essugo suffered the injury while on international duty with Portugal U21s.

Buonanotte could now make his Champions League debut when Chelsea take on Bayern Munich on Wednesday.
