£50m player really wants to leave Stamford Bridge and Chelsea believe exit will happen soon
TBR Football understand Ben Chilwell is desperate to leave Stamford Bridge this month – with Chelsea believing an exit will happen soon.
So far this season, the England international has not played a single second of football under Enzo Maresca in the Premier League – having been exiled from the squad last summer when the Italian replaced Mauricio Pochettino.
The man has only played 45 minutes of Carabao Cup action this term – not even making an appearance in the UEFA꧃ Conference League after being left out of that squad too.
Discussing the situation last w✤eek, Maresca said: “Ben has been top. I have to say that, he has been top. Very professional, wor🌌ks hard. I feel shame because of that situation but in terms of behaviour, he has been very good.”
“First of all because it is my choice (to not ಌplay him) and because I can see Malo Gusto, Reece James or Marc Cucurella doing different kind of j🦹obs during the game.
“I🍌 think Chilwell is a top full-back, doing that job up and down and given the opportunity in the past to win titles and be in national team, but I struggle to see Ben doing different kind of things (such as invert𒅌ed full-back).”
Now, sources close to Chelsea have shared an update with TBR Football on Ben Chilwell.
Both Ben Chilwell and Chelsea believe a loan exit is close
Graeme Bailey – Chief Correspondent at TBR Football – has now been t💎old that the man 𓂃born in Milton Keynes is really keen to leave Chelsea during this winter transfer window.
Both Chilwell and Chelsea believe a loa🥂n exit is close to materialising – with the Blues already carrying out work on a replacement more suited to what Maresca demands.
TBR Footballౠ understand Chelsea like Patrick Dorgu, and sent scouts to watch the Denmark international play for Lecce in their 3-1 win over Empoli on Saturday.
Sources add that Leicester City – wꦰho sold Chilwell to Chelsea in August 2020 – are keeping tab🌃s on the situation.
Chelsea face competition from Manchester United for Patrick Dorgu
Chelsea are not the only side keen to sign the 2🍰0⛦-year-old.
Sources have also informed TBR Football that Manchester United like Dorgu – and have been left impressed by the Lecce No.13 after sending scouts to watcꦦh him.
It is believed the Dane is viewed as an ideal fit for the 3-4-3 formation Ruben Amorim has brought to Old Trafford, a 🐲system which heavily relies on wing-backs marauding up and down the flanks.
