JAKARTA - Jadon Sancho is arguably not a regular Chelsea player since being loaned from Manchester United in August 2024.
In fact, in the six matches he has played, only one party has Sancho played for 90 minutes.
He has only had four opportunities as a starter, the remaining two as substitutes.
Performance level inconsistencies are the reason Enzo Maresca has not given more confidence to the 24-year-old.
Most recently, Maresca even rested Sancho in two consecutive matches, namely at the UEFA Conference League and the Premier League against Newcastle United last weekend.

"The players were unable to maintain the same level throughout the season because the number of matches was very large. So, the last two games he didn't play just because of tactical decisions," Maresca said at ESPN.
However, Maresca paid special attention to Sancho. He continues to monitor the development of the winger.
The Italian manager believes that in the future Sancho can achieve his best performance and can play regularly and get more playing time.
"Jadon has played well since he arrived. He will play many games."
"The only thing he has to do is keep working hard. When we gave him the chance, he had to take it," said Maresca.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will play the Carabao Cup Fourth Round match against Newcastle United on Thursday, October 31, 2024, early morning WIB.
Enzo Maresca has not leaked whether Sancho will be played or not.
