The 27-year-old defender <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-ben-chilwell-transfer-decision-links-jose-mourinho-galatasaray-not-wanted-enzo-maresca/blt7c4f4921ea71dd09" target="_blank">was linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge</a> throughout the summer but could not find a new home. He was banished from the first-team training sessions and was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/chelsea-pfa-push-for-bomb-squads-blues-banish-raheem-sterling-ben-chilwell/blt1832026841ea2a0b" target="_blank">part of a so-called "bomb squad"</a> along with other superstars who were surplus to requirements, including Raheem Sterling.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Maresca has, however, had a change of heart and Chilwell has been added to Chelsea’s 25-man Premier League squad for the current season. The Italian had previously indicated that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/situation-chelsea-boss-enzo-maresca-u-turn-ben-chilwell-plans-transfer-exile/bltfb5fb480af4d7a9f#cs86c97ebeaa2cfc0c" target="_blank">Chilwell’s inclusion in matchday squads would be evaluated on a game-by-game basis</a>, with tonight's Carabao Cup fixture against Barrow likely to see the full-back don the blue jersey again.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Speaking ahead of the Barrow clash, Maresca said: "I think so (Chilwell will be involved). Hopefully, we can give him some minutes tomorrow. The idea for him was to leave. At the moment that he’s here, he’s one of the squad, he’s training. He will be in the squad tomorrow and hopefully, we can give him some minutes.”

WHAT MARESCA SAID

Chillwell's last official appearance for Chelsea came during a brief two-minute cameo in their 1-0 FA Cup semi-final defeat to Manchester City back in April. However, he might not be the only player who could be brought back in from the cold as Maresca suggested that he will hand opportunities to several fringe players to make a case for themselves against Barrow.“They are players that train every day very well but unfortunately I cannot give them chances,” he said.“All the players that are not getting so many chances, tomorrow is a good chance for them to get minutes and to hopefully win a game.”

DID YOU KNOW?

Chilwell will hope to make the most of the opportunity and impress against the League Two outfit on Tuesday evening at Stamford Bridge. Apart from him, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mykhailo-mudryk-chelsea-struggles-not-down-confidence-enzo-maresca-challenges-flop-do-better/blt106624181771537e#csbf6e756dad4c834b" target="_blank">Mykhailo Mudryk could also make a rare appearance.</a> The Ukraine international will also have a point to prove after falling down the pecking order behind the likes of Pedro Neto and Jadon Sancho.
