There has been question marks about Chelsea’s Champions League qualification hopes this season.

The Blues have been in and out of the Champions League positions so far.

However, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has expressed his confidence that the Blues will secure Champions League football next season.

Despite a season full of ups and downs, Chelsea currently sits in fourth place. With nine games left in the Premier League, Maresca is confident that his team has the quality and determination to finish in the top four.

“I am convinced we’re a better team than two months ago,” Maresca said.

“We are there [in the top four] – and we have been there all season – so it’s our duty to try to finish there.

“And as I’ve said, this club belongs in the Champions League so we have to do everything in our hands possible to bring the club there.”
