Chelsea players have a bold prediction about the future of Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge amid the team’s bad run of results.
The Blues are going through a tough run right now having won just four times across their last 13 matches in all competitions.
Suddenly, Maresca’s team are facing a stern battle to keep their place in the Champions League qualification spots with just four points separating them from Aston Villa in tenth.
The Italian manager is coming under big pressure to turn things around, although there is already a clear sense emerging about his future in West London.
Chelsea players strongly believe in Enzo Maresca
Chelsea players are believed to still be firmly behind Enzo Maresca and feel he can become one of the best managers in the business, Fabrizio Romano tells GiveMeSport.
Cole Palmer has recently backed Maresca to eventually be a success at Stamford Bridge and has urged his teammates to execute his plans better.
The West London club’s owners also hold the same opinions on the former Leicester City boss and he is now considered to be untouchable.
Regardless of upcoming results, Chelsea are ready to stick behind their manager, who they are confident will keep improving alongside the club.
Chelsea have already held transfer talks with Maresca for the summer and discussions about who to sign at striker are a key part of these talks.
Can Enzo Marseca qualify Chelsea for the Champions League?
The main pressure on Maresca is to qualify for the Champions League so it could be intriguing to see what happens with the manager should they fail to do so.
Chelsea were seen as title contenders before Christmas, however, their poor form has seen them fall 21 points behind Liverpool.
Now, even just qualifying for the Champions League looks like it could be a major fight with several teams queuing up behind them.
