Ben Chilwell (28, England), who was forgotten after being completely excluded from Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca (44, Italy)'s plan, is expected to leave soon. As he has not already received the opportunity throughout this season, the prevailing view was that he would push for a transfer when the winter transfer market opens this month, but Maresca publicly announced the news that Chilwell was seeking a transfer.

According to Maresca's press conference posted by Chelsea on its official website on the 10th (Korea time), Chilwell will be excluded from the entry for the third round of the Mocombe and the English 메이저놀이터 Football Association (FA) Cup at Stamford Bridge in London on the 12th. Coach Maresca explained the reason, saying publicly, "Chilwell is currently considering leaving."
In fact, Chilwell was not included in Maresca's plan throughout this season, so there were a series of observations that he would push for a transfer during the winter transfer market. Coach Maresca, who was newly appointed last summer, preferred a stable balance between offense and defense over a strong offensive tendency, and as a result, Chilwell played only one official game.

As a result, Chilwell was completely turned away and faced a career crisis, and continues to live together in an uncomfortable manner, and sought to move on ahead of the winter transfer window. Chelsea has also decided to sell Chilwell, which was classified as "out of power." As the winter transfer window opens, Chelsea are now officially moving forward with the move, putting an end to their five-year partnership with Chelsea.

Up until last summer, Chilwell was initially courted by Galatasaray, Brentford and Fenerbachce. He was also on the list of players sought after by Atletico Madrid. However, the two teams have attracted keen attention recently. Instead, West Ham United coach Graham Potter, 49, who once served as Chelsea manager, wants to meet again, and they are now getting closer.

"Coach Potter, who has been appointed as West Ham United's new head coach, wants to be reunited with Chilwell, who was abandoned by Chelsea as his first recruitment," the U.K. media Football Transfer reported on Wednesday. "Coach Chilwell has lost his foothold in Chelsea, so he will be able to secure his transfer without much difficulty."

Chilwell, who wore the Chelsea uniform in 2020, played as a regular starter except when he was out of the lineup due to injuries and disciplinary actions. He played in 107 matches (nine goals and 12 assists) in all competitions. The average playing time per game was 69.25 minutes. Notably, he played in nine matches in the UEFA Champions League in 2021, greatly contributing to Chelsea's victory.
