Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca has admitted his regret regarding the decision not to field Josh Acheampong in the team’s recent 3-1 Premier League defeat against Leeds United. Maresca explained his lineup choice was based on anticipating long balls from Leeds, a strategy that ultimately proved ineffective.
The loss significantly hampered Chelsea’s Premier League title ambitions. Additionally, Maresca provided an update on Romeo Lavia, confirming he is sidelined with a muscle injury, with no clear timeline for his return to play.
