A bombshell revelation has shaken Chelsea FC as Coach Enzo Maresca confirmed that Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell are no longer part of the team’s plans.
In a shocking admission, Maresca revealed that both players are training separately from the first team, casting doubt on their future at the club.
Maresca’s candid comments left no room for interpretation, stating, “Sterling and Ben are training apart from the first team. I just try to be honest with them.” He further emphasized that Sterling will struggle to get minutes on the pitch, saying, “I told Raheem he’s going to struggle to get minutes, here with us. Chilly, he’s going to struggle here too.”
The Italian coach clarified that his decision wasn’t a reflection on Sterling’s abilities, but rather a matter of personal preference. “I am not saying Raheem is not a good player, not at all… but I prefer different kinds of wingers, simple.”
Maresca also addressed the elephant in the room – Chelsea’s bloated squad. “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.” He dismissed concerns about the situation, saying, “It’s not a mess like it looks from outside. Absolutely not.”
In a stunning statement, Maresca showed no regard for the players’ contracts, saying, “They can even have 20 years contract, it’s not my point. I don’t care.”
This development raises questions about the future of Sterling and Chilwell at Chelsea, with speculation surrounding potential transfers or loan moves. As the situation unfolds, fans and pundits alike will be watching closely to see how this saga plays out.
