Chelsea Secures Conference League Final Spot Against Real Betis in Wroclaw

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is preparing for a crucial period as the team aims to secure Champions League qualification while also focusing on the UEFA Conference League final against Real Betis. Chelsea recently secured their spot in the final after a 5-1 aggregate win over Djurgarden and will face Betis, managed by Maresca’s former mentor Manuel Pellegrini, in Wroclaw, Poland. Maresca expressed both excitement and respect for Pellegrini, whom he calls his “professional dad,” having played under and coached alongside him for four years. Despite his successful past with Betis’s rivals Sevilla, Maresca is determined to win the final and sees the Conference League victory as a foundation for building a winning mentality at Chelsea. The Blues are simultaneously managing a critical three-game Premier League run-in against Newcastle, Manchester United, and Nottingham Forest, which will determine their return to Europe’s elite competition next season. This final represents an opportunity for Chelsea to become the first club to win all three major UEFA competitions, adding a historic significance to their quest.
