Eden Hazard was one of the Chelsea players "upset" by the situation surrounding Kepa's refusal to be replaced in the final defeat of the League Cup against Manchester City on Sunday.
Kepa defied his manager's orders late in the extension after being treated for an apparent cramping crisis, while the fourth official posted his number on the board and Willy Caballero was about to leave.
After the Spaniard, who had the right to refuse replacement in accordance with the rules of the International Football Association Board (IFAB), stood up, Maurizio Sarri rushed into the tunnel, furious that the change has not been made.
Kepa and Sarri insisted that it was a misunderstanding, but the club announced that the 24-year-old would be fined a week's salary, which would be donated to the Chelsea Foundation.
And the The telegraph of the day claims that Danger "Was appalled by the way the extensions ended" at what could be his last appearance at Wembley for Chelsea's moves to Real Madrid in summer.
The Spanish contingent Cesar Azpilicueta, Pedro and Marcos Alonso are totally behind compatriot Kepa, while David Luiz, Willy Caballero, Jorginho and Gonzalo Higuain are all "great supporters" of Sarri.
A source close to Chelsea said at the The telegraph of the day"Some players thought that Kepa was wrong, some thought that Sarri had reacted excessively and others were simply annoyed by the whole situation.
"Now it's a question of whether there is lasting anger or if everyone can calm down in time for the Tottenham match.
"The team has to meet because there have been too many players who have protected themselves when things went wrong this season."
