The head coach of Chelsea Football Club, Enzo Maresca has given an update on the future of Ben Chilwell and Raheem Sterling as he continues to build his squad for the 2024/25 season.

There has been a lot of speculation in the media concerning the future of both Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell as they were both left out of the squad against Manchester City in the opening game of the season. Maresca was asked about both players in a pre-match press conference ahead of the Blues Europa Conference League game against Servette on Thursday, August 22, 2024.

He said,

"I have been honest, he will have no minutes here. I am not saying Raheem is not a good player but I prefer different kinds of wingers. It’s simple. I told Raheem he’s going to struggle to get minutes with us. Chilly, he’s going to struggle here too”.

He also spoke about the narrative going on in the media that he had to deal with 42 players.

"I am not working with 42 players. I am working with 21 players. The other 15-20 players are training apart. I don't see them. It's not a mess like it looks from outside. Absolutely not. They can even have 20 years contract, it’s not my point. I don’t care."

Chelsea supporters will hope that the club can sort of the future of the players before the end of the current transfer window.
