Chelsea’s latest internal talks prove Enzo Maresca’s future at Stamford Bridge has already been decided

Chelsea’s latest round of internal talks proves they have already decided what is going to happen with the future of Enzo Maresca.

Maresca is coming under a fair bit of pressure after Chelsea were beaten 3-0 away at Brighton le♐aving them with just three wins from their last 11 𒉰matches.

The Italian’s bright start to life in the west of the cꦛapital means the Blues’ supporters will continue to back him for now, however, things🌱 will need to change quickly.

Chelsea fans have become accustomed to underperforming managers quickly being relieved of their duties and the West London club appear to have already ma🍬de their🧸 mind up on Maresca.
