CHELSEA could have a different look under Liam Rosenior after the new boss hinted at a return for two exiled stars.
Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi have been training alone since the summer after being placed in Chelsea’s ‘bomb squad’.
Both have been linked with moves away from the club this summer but it appears they could be handed a lifeline by Rosenior.
The pair featured regularly prior to Enzo Maresca’s arrival with Sterling making 81 appearances for the club, and Disasi 61.
And they could return to action to offer Rosenior more options in attack and defence.
The new Chelsea boss is set to hold crunch talks with Sterling and admitted he is a big fan of the former England star.

He also admitted to being fond of Disasi in a hint the duo might return to first-team action.
Rosenior said: “I will have conversations with them.
“Raheem’s had an outstanding career. I’ve got huge respect for him and Axel [who was loaned to Aston Villa] is someone I’ve liked for a long time.
“With the amount of games that we’ve got and the stuff I’ve had to do, not just in terms of training but with the staff, I haven’t got on to that topic. I will do it in the next few days.
“I have to have a conversation with them. I have to have a conversation with the club.
“I have to work through a list of priorities. It’s been a whirlwind. That’s near the top of my list.”
