Chelsea Manager Enzo Maresca Predicts Future Dominance

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has expressed confidence that the club will dominate the Premier League within the next five to ten years, despite currently sitting third in the table, nine points behind leaders Liverpool. He has downplayed the team's title chances this season, citing the squad's inexperience, with an average age of just over 23. Since the Clearlake Capital takeover, Chelsea has spent over £1.5 billion on young talent, aiming to build a competitive team for the future. Maresca emphasized that while the team is not in a title race this season, they are on the right trajectory toward becoming a major force in English football. He noted that the owners did not set immediate targets; instead, they focused on long-term development. The manager believes that the young squad's potential will yield significant success in the coming years.
