EPL: 15 players sacked from Chelsea first team—Maresca reveals

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has stated that only 28 of the 43 players on the club's roster are training with the first squad.

Maresca told the reporters on Friday that having an enormous team is "not good".

Conor Gallagher, Romelu Lukaku, and Kepa Arrizabalaga are among the players that are now not part of the first team.

They are all being forced to practice separately as Chelsea seeks solutions in the transfer market.

Maresca told reporters: "At the moment if I start to think I have 43 players it is not a good thing, I have 28 training with me."

He said further: "Paul and Laurence are in charge of finding solutions for these guys not me."
