An exclusive report has named three Chelsea player who are now unhappy at the club due to their playing time they are getting.
Or more accurately, a lack of playing time they are getting.
EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea pick main candidate for new full back transfer pursuit!
As is the nature of the beast at a big club like Chelsea, you are always going to get quality competition when you are trying to play as much as you can. So there are always going to be players left disappointed every game as they see others start ahead of them.
What Enzo Maresca has done so far at Chelsea is use two completely different starting line ups for league games and cup games. This helps with injuries and fatigue, and also allows game time for players who are not starting in his best Xl.
However, it appears that some of these players are now becoming unhappy with not playing in the best Xl, and the rumours are beginning.
Chelsea say Badiashile is not for sale
You wouldn’t have missed this massive club briefing yesterday claiming that defender Benoit Badiashile is not for sale, because it was everywhere and out like clockwork from the media. That might be Chelsea’s stance, but the player’s could be different.
TBR Football reports Christopher Nkunku is becoming increasingly concerned with his role in the Chelsea squad under Maresca.
But not just him.
Chelsea are apparently very happy with how the squad is shaping up in terms of their strength in depth.
However, some like Nkunku are not happy to sit on the bench in the long-term. Badiashile and Enzo Fernandez are also mentioned as two players worried about their playing time.
The report goes on to say that Nkunku is more than happy to fight for his place at Chelsea, and will continue to do so, not pushing to leave in January. But come the summer he will allegedly assess the situation again.
