Ghana defender Abdul Baba Rahman has been named in Chelsea’s squad for their 2015/2016 UEFA Champions League group stages.

The 21-year-old was named in a 23 man squad with fellow new comers Begovic and Pedro Rodriguez.

Rahman is yet to feature for the English champions after failing to come off the bench in Chelsea’s 2-1 home defeat to Crystal Palace.

The former Augsburg defender will however be boosted by his inclusion into the Champions League group stages as he aims to put up a challenge for the left back position of Jose Mourinho side.

Chelsea’s full squad:

Goalkeepers: Thibaut Courtois, Asmir Begovic, Djamal Blackman.

Defenders:Branislav Ivanovic, John Terry, Garry Cahill, Cesar Azpilicueta, Baba Rahman, Kurt Zouma.

Midfielders: Fabregas, Oscar, Matic, Ramires, Mikel, Willian, Hazard, Kennedy, Traore.

Strikers: Radamel Falcao, Pedro Rodriguez, Diego Costa, Loic Remy, Ruben Loftus-Cheek
