🚨 Enzo Maresca clashed repeatedly with Chelsea’s hierarchy over team selection and in-game substitutions, with the Italian unwilling to accept on-pitch decisions he felt were taken out of his control.
Chelsea maintain their model remains unchanged, insisting any input on selection was strictly related to player workload and welfare, coming solely from the medical department — not the board.
However, Maresca believed the problems at the club ran much deeper, extending across multiple departments. He also felt growing pressure from above to rotate heavily in order to boost the market value of several young players.
