“i don’t want to see you in my first team, Out of my first team” – Chelsea new manager Enzo Maresca BANS Chelsea star from first team drop to reserve team“Out of my first team”
New Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has taken a decisive step in shaping his squad for their upcoming preseason tour in the United States by making notable changes within the team.
Reports from Chelsea247 reveal that goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, who was initially seen training with the Chelsea reserves, has now been reassigned to the main team for practice sessions. A source close to the club confirmed this development, stating, “Kepa is now training with the development squad rather than the main team.”
Kepa, who joined Chelsea for a staggering £71 million, has not met the high expectations set upon his arrival. His tenure at Stamford Bridge has been marked by inconsistency and he now faces limited prospects of reclaiming his spot in the main team. It is rumored that Kepa harbors no desire to return to the Blues’ lineup and is keen on making his recent move to Madrid permanent, especially considering the team’s success last season.
In light of these changes, Robert Sanchez is now poised to start in Chelsea’s first match of the season against Manchester City. This decision seemingly places Sanchez ahead of Djorjde Petrovic, who, despite a commendable performance in his debut Premier League season, appears to have been edged out in the competition for the starting goalkeeper position.
Maresca’s decisions highlight his commitment to refining the squad and ensuring that the players are best prepared for the challenges of the upcoming season. As Chelsea fans watch closely, the team’s dynamics and strategies under Maresca’s leadership will undoubtedly be a focal point in the coming months.
