Enzo Maresca has identified bolstering the defense as a crucial need after Levi Colwill's ACL surgery, which will sideline him for most of the upcoming campaign. Despite a significant financial investment in new players this summer, Chelsea is expected to look for additional defensive reinforcements. Maresca expressed confidence in the team’s performance after a pre-season victory over Bayer Leverkusen and emphasized the importance of young players like Estevao. While Chelsea's attacking options have increased, not all players may be content with playing time due to competition.
Levi is a fantastic player. What we achieved last season is because of him. He played a lot of games with me, I love him. We are going to miss him.
It is a priority for me. We are trying also to find different solutions.
[I am] very happy with the performance, especially after just four days training. It is good to start again.
He is very young, very, very young. He needs to adapt, he needs to play.
