- Maresca allows Chilwell to leave this summer
- The main reason is that Chilwell doesn’t fit into Chelsea’s current plan.
- Since moving from Leicester in 2020, Chilwell has spent most of his time recovering from injuries.
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has spoken ahead of his side’s clash with Manchester City about Ben Chilwell’s future, saying he and the club have already spoken to allow him to leave the club this summer. The main reason for this is that the English left-back has failed to play according to Maresca’s tactics, and has barely played in pre-season games.
“Chilly is still with us now, but he hasn’t trained in the last few days because he’s been sick. As for why he didn’t play against Inter, Chilwell himself understands it quite well, even though I like him a lot. But the problem is that he can’t find a suitable place in this ทางเข้า ufabet https://ufabet999.app team.”
“We have 22 players training this morning and if you ask them all who would like to play against Manchester City on Sunday, they would all say yes. But that’s not possible. It’s not good for you or me if you train every day and don’t get a minute. I have to make a decision and maybe it’s better to leave and get a minute. The market is still open so we’ll see what we can do.”
Since Ben Chilwell joined Chelsea in 2020 for a fee believed to be as much as £50million from Leicester City, the left-back has spent most of his time on the bench or recovering from injuries, with his form steadily declining due to a lack of regular playing time. Most recently, Enzo Maresca has decided to leave his name out of the first-team plans, where there is already competition for the left-back position with Marc Cucurella and Renato Vega.
