Chelsea left-back Ben Chilwell will miss the FA Cup third-round tie against Morecambe as he looks to leave the club.

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca will not risk Chilwell’s chances of finding a new club this month by not using him for Morecambe.

For Saturday’s FA Cup third-round tie at Stamford Bridge, Maresca is likely to call up a number of his substitutes, as he has done in the Carabao Cup and Conference League, but will not include the England international, with the 44-year-old insisting he is free to find a new club after the player has played just 45 minutes this season.

Cesare Casade and Carney Chukwuemeka are also หากคุณสนใจเล่นพนันออนไลน์ที่ดีที่สุด สามารถสมัครสมาชิก UFABET ได้ที่นี่ พร้อมรับโปรโมชั่นพิเศษสำหรับสมาชิกใหม่ on the move and will not feature in the League Two clash.

“Chilwell thinks he wants to move on, so avoid using him to avoid injury risks,” Maresca said.

“Cesare will not be in the team. The situation is the same as Chilwell.”

“The best thing to do now is not to let him play because there is a chance that he might move out.”

Chilwell has made over 100 Chelsea appearances since joining from Leicester in 2020, winning the Champions League in his first season with the Blues.

But he has been in exile since Maresca took charge in the close-season, with Marc Cucurella preferred at left-back.
