Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino is confident the team will qualify for Europe this season.
The Blues failed to qualify for either the Champions League, Europa League or Europa Conference League.
This is because they finished the 2022/2023 campaign in 12th place.
Pochettino is however keen to return Chelsea back to the continent.
“With the circumstances, I think it’s better for us because we have 11 or 12 injured players. I think it’s important now that we can recover and be more competitive.
“But for Chelsea it’s important to be involved in European competition, but that is not in my hands now. That is the reality.
“For sure, we are going to be involved in European competition next season. No doubt with the quality we have.”
