Chelsea make final decision on sacking Enzo Maresca after Brighton defeat

Maresca’s direct approach, although potentially upsetting to some players, might be a contributing factor to Chelsea’s current decision-making.

Nico Jackson’s injury has added to the club’s challenges, complicating the situation further as the 2024/25 campaign reaches its critical stage.

However, Maresca need not worry about his job security.

According to Mail Sport, the Chelsea hierarchy has no intention of dismissing him, especially since he is only a few months into a five-year contract.

The success of his five-year plan will depend on the results over the next few months.

Developing a club identity from the academy to the first team is essential, as is the youth production line.

Currently, Chelsea are clinging to the final Champions League spot. After their match against Brighton and Hove Albion on Friday night, they face tough fixtures against Aston Villa, Arsenal, Leicester City, and Southampton.

These games will be crucial, and by the end of this challenging period, Maresca will have a clearer picture of how the season might end.
