Chelsea defender, Marc Cucurella has shared his thoughts on the club’s dressing room amidst an uncertain situation at Stamford Bridge.
The Spaniard said it was difficult to watch some of his friends leave the club but insisted the dressing room is still collectively happy.
New manager Enzo Maresca has chosen to banish 13 players from the first team, meaning that they need to leave Stamford Bridge or risk being demoted to the feeder team.
Conor Gallagher was frozen out and sold to Atletico Madrid while Trevoh Chalobah, Ben Chilwell, and Armando Broja are expected to leave.
Amidst this, Cucurella has claimed that the mood in the Chelsea dressing room is good.
He told Sky Sports, “I think we are really happy. We have a good group, the main group is from the last season and this can help because you need to know other people.
“For sure, it’s not easy because maybe you have a good relationship with one of the players and they need to leave.
“We know it’s sometimes part of the job but if we’re not happy, we need to continue speaking or chatting.
“But for sure, we need to be focused in our job. We know what we need to do and then the rest is not very important.”
