Enzo Maresca’s Deploys Chelsea Defender To Train As A Winger Ahead Of Next Pre-season Friendly

1 min read

According to Chelsea insider, a number of Chelsea players began to crop up in unfamiliar roles earlier this week when the Blues got their pre-season campaign underway.

While a 2-2 draw with Wrexham will not blow anyone away by any means, there were a number of positives to take for Enzo Maresca.

One of those was undoubtedly Reece Jamesโ€™ performance in a new inverted midfield role.

The club captain admitted that he enjoyed the new role, however knew that he had a lot to learn when it came to featuring there.

Another player who found himself playing in a bit of an unfamiliar position is Ben Chilwell, who did a job at centre-back in the draw with the League One side.

Meanwhile, Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell trains with Chelsea wingers after the Wrexham draw.

With there being no natural left-back role on the pitch earlier this week, it looks as if the manager is looking for a new way to get the vice-captain in his plans.

The Chelsea insider has stated that he was training specially with the wingers in the final session before flying to their next game.
