Chelsea's new player

Chelsea's pre-season preparations are underway, but the exclusion of defender Trevoh Chalobah from the squad has ignited significant backlash from fans. Head Coach Enzo Maresca has taken a 28-man squad to the United States for friendly matches, notably leaving out Chalobah, which many supporters interpret as an attempt to force him out of the club. Fans have expressed their outrage on social media, criticizing the club's treatment of a player who has been with Chelsea since childhood, citing his previous contributions and professionalism. Meanwhile, other notable absentees include Cole Palmer and several players who participated in recent international tournaments. In a different context, former Chelsea player Danny Drinkwater has responded to criticism regarding his new job in construction, asserting his enjoyment of the work despite past controversies. As Chelsea navigates these internal and external challenges, the focus remains on the upcoming pre-season matches against various teams.
