"It's difficult to succeed here" - Badiashile addresses Chelsea future

Benoit Badiashile is struggling to establish himself as a regular starter at Chelsea since joining the Blues in January 2023 from Monaco. 

The French centre-back spoke ahead of the Blues' Conference League clash with Noah and made it clear that he has no intention of leaving. "Of course, I want to stay. Chelsea is a big club. I know it's difficult to succeed here. But I will do my best," he told reporters. 

Badiashile was bought by the Stamford Bridge outfit for £35m and the former Monaco man is contracted to Chelsea until 2030, so it follows that the club would be unwilling to part with him unless a big offer came in.

The 23-year-old defender has made seven official appearances under Enzo Maresca this season, six of them starts, in which he has been cautioned twice.
