Maurizio Sarri says that he won't ask for Michy Batshuayi or Tammy Abraham to return in January from loans with Valencia and Aston Villa, despite Olivier Giroud facing around a month on the sideline.
The loan duo have had mixed fortunes in their spells on loan with Batshuayi having spent a lot of time on the bench at his La Liga club, scoring just three times in his first six months.
Chelsea are understood to be looking for other clubs to loan Batshuayi to, cutting his spell short with Valencia.
