Wroclaw, Poland –
Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca hopes that winning the UEFA Conference League can act as a starting point to a new era of success for the Blues.
Maresca's men roared back from a 1-0 halftime deficit to thrash Real Betis 4-1 on Wednesday to collect their first trophy since an American consortium bought the club from former owner Roman Abramovich in 2022.
The victory in Wroclaw rounded off a fine first season in charge for Maresca, who also helped Chelsea secure a return to the Champions League next season by finishing fourth in the Premier League.
