“He’s not good for my system” “We’re not playing big boy ball at Chelsea” – Enzo Maresca tells Chelsea star is not for enough for his system
According to The Guardian, Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca does not view João Félix as a suitable fit for his tactical system, with new signing João Pedro seen as a better option moving forward.
Félix, who spent the second-half of last season on loan at AC Milan, is not part of the squad currently competing at the Club World Cup in the United States.
With Chelsea finalising the signing of João Pedro from Brighton, Maresca believes the 23-year-old Brazilian offers more of the tactical versatility and pressing intensity he requires in his frontline, putting Félix’s future at the club in serious doubt.
