Enzo Maresca details what Chelsea star is doing to make players around him better

Enzo Maresca was full of praise for Marc Cucurella ahead of Saturday’s game against Brighton and believes he’s making the players around him better.

Chelsea paid more than £60m to sign Cucurella from Brighton in 2022 and he struggled in his first season at Stamford Bridge and was even booed by his own fans as the Blues slumped to a 12th placed finish.

Cucurella was close to joining Manchester United on loan last summer, but he ended up staying at Chelsea and had a good campaign, especially towards the end of the season.
