The player who boasts a huge glass body is not injured, but he was excluded from the first team. There seems to be no chance of returning.

The Sun of England reported on the 25th (Korea time) 'Ben Chilwell is in danger of not being able to play for the next six months because Chelsea will not be offered an offer'

The Sun explained that Chilwell is the one that Carney Chukuehmeka wants to leave, but the transfer does not seem easy. Chilwell was re-signed last year, but was completely expelled from the first team for tactical reasons. He said he was paid so high that no other club has any plans to recruit him.




Chilwell, who joined Chelsea with a £50m transfer fee after a huge performance at Leicester City in 2020, was appointed Chelsea's vice-captain ahead of the 2023-2024 season. Chilwell's performance during his time in Tuchel was not enough to make his name as vice-captain.

However, with Maresca appointed this season, Chilwell was completely excluded from the team's plan. Chilwell, who missed a whopping 530 days and 107 games with Chelsea due to injury, has not been on the first team list this season even though he has not been injured. The League Cup match against Barlow on September 25 was Chilwell's last first team appearance.

Maresca said of Chilwell even at the beginning of the season, "The situation is a little subtle. We are looking for a solution to his position. Perhaps it will take time, and finding the right position for him is a sensitive task, he said, acknowledging the ambiguity of the possibility of using him. In this interview, there are players who have not played in many competitions like Chilwell. But he's not playing, so he'll want to leave"Chillwell publicly admitted that he could ask for a transfer. Chelsea have no regrets about Chilwell either. There is not much shortage of defensive fullback resources, including Marc Cucurella this season.




The problem is pay. Chilwell is receiving a whopping 200,000 pounds (about 365 million won) per week. It is also at the top of the English Premier League (EPL). It seems difficult to sell at a time when there are not many clubs who can afford Chilwell's salary.

Chilwell, who once played as the best fullback in the EPL, completely lost his position even though he was not injured. If there is no reversal in the transfer market this winter, Chilwell's next appearance may not take place until the next season.
