“I have a contract here until 2029 and I am focused on this club. I am very proud to be here. This is speculation. It was the same against Juventus a week ago, so I am not concerned.”<\/p>\n

“Again, this is just speculation. It’s important to understand why this news broke, but that’s not my job. I don’t care at all and my focus is on the Newcastle game.”<\/p>\n

Asked if he would remain at Stamford Bridge next season, Maresca added: “Yes, of course. I am contracted until June 2029.”<\/p>\n

Ahead of the trip to Newcastle, Maresca confirmed there were no new injury issues from the Carabao Cup quarter-final win over Cardiff.<\/p>\n

“We’re fine,” he shared. “The players we left out for Cardiff are fine. Liam Delap and Estevao Willian will probably be available for Aston Villa, Romeo (Lavia) is still out and Levi (Colwill) is still out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“We’ve said since his (Delap’s) injury that he’s been making good progress, although we don’t know exactly how long.<\/p>\n

“We recently reached the semi-finals for the third time in 18 months. Last year we were good in that we won the trophy and finished fourth in the Premier League. The aim is to improve on what we achieved last season.”<\/p>\n

“Sandro Tonali, Guimar\u00e3es, Joelinton, (Louis) Miley, they are all great players, international players. They complete each other. They are strong physically, they are good on the ball. They are 100% complete and perfect. It is difficult for any team to play against them.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
