""Liam is very close," Maresca said. "He is not working with us yet, he is still out but hopefully he can start in the next days to take part in the session with us.""
""We have him [Marc], we have also Tyrique who has played games as a nine in the past," he said. "He did well. He played I think against Benfica as a nine. We have different options. We have one more session this afternoon and then we decide.""
""We trust Marc. We trust already last year, he was always playing in the Conference [League]. We also gave him some Premier League games so we show in the past that we trust Marc. Now he is again with us and he is going to play games for sure.""
Liam Delap suffered a hamstring injury during Chelsea's 2-0 win over Fulham on August 30 and has been sidelined since. The 22-year-old joined Chelsea from Ipswich Town for £30 million and was initially expected to miss up to 12 weeks, but recovery is progressing faster than anticipated. Enzo Maresca confirmed Delap could begin taking part in first-team sessions in the coming days. Delap's absence forced late transfer-window adjustments, including attempts to retain Nicolas Jackson, recalling Marc Guiu from loan, and halting the sale of Tyrique George. Delap's return would add attacking depth amid suspensions and selection choices.
