David Luiz appeared to catch Gonzalo Higuain in the face with a late elbow, sparking a training ground altercation.
At the Olympic Stadium in Baku on Tuesday night, as the Blues went through preparations for the Europa League final clash with Arsenal, the team-mates clashed.
Higuain first tried to get the ball from Luiz and after failing, tried again.
The defender then appears to thrust an elbow at his team-mate, causing Higuain to utter some choice words to Luiz.
Boss Maurizio Sarri was then seen throwing his cap to the ground and walking off the pitch in anger.
However, it is said the manager was angry at not being allowed to practise set-pieces without cameras filming their training sessions.
He wanted his players to go over tactical instructions in private without potential spies watching.

When told he could not train in private, he became angry.
Sarri also confirmed N’Golo Kante is 50/50 to be involved in the showpiece match.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, he said: “He had a little problem in his knee. It’s not a serious injury but the problem is the timing because we have only four days to recover. We are trying.”
Kante had been on course to make a full recovery from a hamstring injury which kept him out of the semi-final second leg against Eintracht Frankfurt and the Blues’ final match of the Premier League season against Leicester.
Chelsea are already without Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ruben Loftus-Cheek who both suffered ruptured Achilles tendon injuries, while defender Antonio Rudiger is out after knee surgery.
