Chelsea player is content to play for club despite being treated poorly by coach Enzo Maresca.

Ben Chilwell received some unfortunate news that he was not a part of the future plans at Chelsea. However, despite being excluded from the first-team by new manager Enzo Maresca, the left-back remains committed to the club and is more than happy to continue playing for them.

Chilwell was one of several players, referred to as the "bomb-squad", who were sent away from the team over the summer and informed that they had no future at the club. While others, such as Raheem Sterling, Conor Gallagher, and Romelu Lukaku, were able to secure transfers to other clubs, Chilwell was not as fortunate and remains at Stamford Bridge.

There were rumors of a potential move to a club in Turkey before their transfer window closed, but nothing came to fruition due to Chilwell's high wages and injury history. As a result, it seems that he will be staying with Chelsea for the time being.

Maresca has previously stated that he will not change his decision to exclude players from training, and Chilwell was not named in the club's Conference League squad. It is also unlikely that he will be included in the Premier League squad, which will be confirmed on Friday. This means that his only opportunity to play for the Blues this year will be in the Carabao Cup.

Despite Maresca's treatment of him, sources close to Chilwell have revealed that he is still eager to participate in the competition. Additionally, the club also prefers that he gets some game time over the next few months. It would not make sense to completely bench him as it would decrease his value and make him less attractive to potential buyers when the transfer window reopens in January.

Chelsea's first Carabao Cup match is against League Two team Barrow on September 24. However, it remains to be seen what role Chilwell will have by then. Before that, the team has two crucial matches against Bournemouth and West Ham.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future with the club, Chilwell remains committed and willing to contribute in any way he can.
