The future of Carney Chukwuemeka at Chelsea hangs in the balance. Despite numerous loan offers, the club is adamant that he will not be leaving this summer. The talented midfielder had a promising start to last season under the guidance of Mauricio Pochettino, but an unfortunate knee injury sidelined him for four months. Though he made a return in January, he only made a handful of appearances as a substitute.
With a new manager, Enzo Maresca, at the helm and the club's plans for summer recruitment in full swing, the competition for places in the team is expected to intensify. In fact, according to reports from Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea has already rejected multiple loan offers for Chukwuemeka, citing his £40 million release clause in his contract.
Unfortunately for Chukwuemeka, his chances of breaking into Maresca's plans took a hit as Chelsea recently confirmed the signing of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from Leicester City. The 25-year-old midfielder had a phenomenal season under Maresca's guidance at Leicester, playing a crucial role in their promotion campaign.
In an interview with the Chelsea website, Dewsbury-Hall couldn't stop praising his new head coach, stating that he is "fantastic" and "top." He also expressed his admiration for Maresca's style of play, which he believes will be implemented at Chelsea as well. The midfielder is confident that with time, the team will adapt and play naturally under Maresca's guidance, which will be beneficial for the club.
