Cesare Casadei, Chelsea central midfielder has hinted on his future at Chelsea. He has revealed that he is not yet leaving the club not even any moment soon.

Chelsea midfielder Cesare Casadei has heaped praise on manager Enzo Maresca before Thursday evening's Europa Conference League match against Gent. Casadei played under Maresca during his loan spell with Leicester City last season and admitted he was "happy and excited" when he knew Maresca had taken the job at Stamford Bridge.

Maresca has since acknowledged that he plans to use the former Inter Milan starlet in a more defensive-minded role than he has been accustomed to in the past. In over two years spent at Chelsea, Casadei has only accumulated 71 minutes - spread across 11 substitute outings - of Premier League football.
