Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has no doubts about the quality of his players, but the Italian thinks this season is too early to talk about winning the Premier League title.
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca says the club can "dominate" the Premier League in the next five to 10 years.
Chelsea have spent more than £1.5bn since the Clearlake takeover - largely on younger players on longer contracts - albeit balanced by substantial sales. But Maresca believes the inexperience of his squad, which has an average age of just over 23, is a reason they will ultimately fall short this season.
"In terms of a target they didn't ask me for any target, only to try to build something important for the next years. I think we are in the right direction.
