Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has admitted that he has been unfair to Christopher Nkunku.
According to Maresca, the Frenchman deserves something more at Chelsea.
The Italian gaffer made this statement after Nkunku failed to leave Stamford Bridge during the January transfer window.
Nkunku had attracted interest from Manchester United and Bayern Munich last month.
But he ended up staying at the Premier League’s west London club as the transfer didn’t go through.
The 27-year-old has not been a regular starter for Chelsea under Maresca.
Nkunku has started just three Premier League games for Maresca’s side this season.
“Christo, since day one, has been very good, very professional,” Maresca said after Chelsea’s victory over West Ham on Monday night.
“Probably in some moments I have been unfair to him because he probably deserves something more.
“But hopefully, from now on, he can help us a little bit more.”
