Amid speculation over his future, Maresca has firmly claimed that the French forward is still a Chelsea player and believes Nkunku will stay at the club beyond this summer. The 27-year-old clocked just 910 minutes on the pitch in the Premier League last season. While he appeared in 33 league matches, the France international managed to start in only nine of them.
