According to reports, Chelsea came back from a 0-2 deficit but ultimately settled for a 2-2 draw against Ipswich Town, who are on the verge of relegation. The London Blues, along with Maresca, faced whistles of protest from fans at halftime while trailing by two goals.

With four points dropped in their last two Premier League matches, the team has made it difficult for themselves to return to Champions League contention after two seasons, as they have slipped to sixth place in the standings and are one point behind Manchester City, who stand fifth.

Since Chelsea’s performance sharply declined in December, there have been rumors about Maresca’s future at the club. However, it is reported that Chelsea’s management is satisfied with the Italian coach’s commitment, and even if they fail to qualify for the Champions League, his dismissal is unlikely.

A source within Chelsea told The Sun: “Everyone at the club is fully aligned and committed to bringing us back to the Champions League. Enzo, the board, and the sporting directors are all dedicated to this goal. If it doesn’t happen this season, questions will naturally arise, but for now, Enzo is still seen as the man to take Chelsea forward.”
