Enzo Maresca has opened up and admitted that it is up to Kieran Drewsbury-Hall if he wants to leave CHELSEA when the January window opens up in just a few weeks time after failing to make an impact at Stamford Bridge.
The 25-year-old rose to prominence with the Foxes during their doomed 2022-23 Premier League season, but his efforts were ultimately futile in the fight against the drop.
Dewsbury-Hall remained loyal to Leicester over that summer transfer window, and with Enzo Maresca at the helm, the Englishman has enjoyed his most prolific season to date and helped get the club back to the Premier League.
But when CHELSEA made the decision to offer Enzo Maresca the chance to take over at Stamford Bridge, the Italian was desperate to make sure that the midfielder was also brought to London in a shock move.
However, the move to London has not worked out for the player, He has clocked up just 43 minutes of Premier League action over three appearances this season, with only one of those – a six-minute stint at West Ham – coming since August.
While he has been given more opportunities in the Europa Conference League and the EFL Cup – he has frequently been left out of the Premier League squad in recent weeks and now looks set to leave the club.
Now, amid all the speculation that the midfielder is leaving the club, The Italian manager emphasized that the decision ultimately rests with Dewsbury-Hall and the club. He explained, “We don’t want one of our players to leave.
‘The problem is sometimes the question is more for them. If they say ‘You don’t want me to leave but I am not happy and want to play more’, in that case, we are not going to say ‘No, you have to stay’.
‘It’s a matter of an agreement between the club and the player. The only thing I can say is I am happy with Kiernan, then we will see.”
