Enzo Maresca's position as Chelsea manager is under threat nearing the season's end, amidst mixed evaluations from senior management. Despite a five-year deal, doubts linger particularly regarding the team's performance, including slow strategic play and a decline in star player Cole Palmer's form. Although Maresca started strong, Chelsea's consistency has wavered, leading to a risk of management changes as the club has shown a tendency to frequently replace coaches. Achieving Champions League qualification or Europa Conference League success may help Maresca retain his role, but concerns persist about his coaching style.
Sources close to the situation have informed CaughtOffside that there is some degree of division among senior figures at Chelsea about whether or not to continue with Maresca.
Despite signing a five-year contract, it now seems Maresca's time with Chelsea could be cut short as the club wait to see how the campaign finishes.
There are concerns about how slow Chelsea's build-up play has been, while the considerable dip in form from star player Cole Palmer has also raised eyebrows.
Maresca hasn't quite delivered as promised, so it will be interesting to see how this situation develops in the weeks ahead.
