Despite the constant transfer speculation surrounding Chelsea, midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall insists that the players are in a “bubble” and remain focused on their training and upcoming matches. He emphasized the importance of not letting external factors affect their performance on the field.
Manager Enzo Maresca has made it clear that certain players, including England internationals Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell, will not be part of the club’s plans for the season. This decision has led to more than 15 players training separately from the first team in an effort to trim down the squad.
Dewsbury-Hall expressed that the players are seeking clarity from the manager regarding their roles within the team. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the squad, he believes that Maresca is transparent and provides the players with the information they need to understand their situations.
The midfielder emphasized that the players are solely focused on their training and preparation for upcoming matches. Dewsbury-Hall mentioned that the team’s only concern is giving their best efforts in training and being ready for the challenges that lie ahead, regardless of the transfer rumors circulating outside the club.
As Chelsea gear up to face Servette in the Europa Conference League playoff, Dewsbury-Hall’s comments shed light on the team’s mindset amidst the ongoing speculation. The players are determined to maintain their focus on the pitch and continue to work hard under Maresca’s guidance. Following the European fixture, Chelsea will travel to face Wolves in the Premier League, where they will look to carry forward their commitment and determination on the field.
