New Year's Eve is not easy for Chelsea fans. After the controversial match against Bournemouth, which ended in a 2-2 draw, various rumors surrounding the team's head coach, Enzo Maresca, intensified. News that he hadn't attended the post-match press conference sparked widespread discussion both on social media and around London.
Previously, it was reported that the 45-year-old specialist missed the press conference due to feeling unwell. But insider Ben Jacobs cooled this version: according to him, there were no health problems with Maresca.
Interestingly, Jacobs explains Maresca's decision not to communicate with journalists for another reason. It is reported that the Italian coach is currently in the midst of crucial decisions regarding his future at the club. That is, he's considering whether to stay at Chelsea or leave, weighing various scenarios. Perhaps that's why he chose silence for a while, avoiding difficult questions, intense pressure, and discussions.
Moreover, a Sky Sports source made an even harsher prediction: Enzo Maresca might even be dismissed on January 1st. Of course, this isn't a definitive verdict yet, but such rumors don't just appear in big clubs.
Reports indicate that Maresca is dissatisfied with some aspects of the Chelsea project. The thing is, there are claims that managers are influencing his independent decision-making process. The coach believes that the club's overall direction doesn't always fully align with the football style and plans it desires.
In short, at Chelsea, the New Year's gift is not a trophy, but intrigue. Whether Maresca is really on the verge of leaving or this is just another media pressure - the coming days will put everything in its place. But one thing is clear: the current situation in London is not peaceful, and every new piece of news is further upsetting the fans.
