The England international is poised to return to the squad to make his first appearance of the season during Tuesday’s Carabao Cup clash with League Two leaders Barrow.
The Englishman looked set to leave Stamford Bridge in the summer after Maresca informed him and publicly declared he had no future at the West London side.
Speaking ahead of Tuesday’s League Cup clash, Maresca announced the situation had changed and now plans to name the left back in his matchday squad for the third-round cup tie after welcoming him back into first-team training.
Ben Chilwell, a defender, has returned to the Chelsea team, as confirmed by Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca.
“Ben Chilwell will be in the squad for tomorrow’s game.
“He is training. Hopefully we can give him some minutes,” he said.
