Regarding the FA's allegation that Muderick violates anti-doping rules, the player may face a long ban
I trust Muderick, Muderick is a Chelsea player, I trust all of my players. The last time we talked was during the Europa League final, Muderick was in a pretty good shape at the time and he didn't look worried, and Chelsea will definitely contact him in the next few days or a week.
About Chelsea still hopes to sign another winger this summer...
We have played all season without Muderick and are trying to solve the problem with some youth players, like Tyrik George, we will pursue a winger this summer because it's obvious that this is the position we need to strengthen.
Regarding the need for a intensive schedule such as "one game every three days", I don't say that 10 or 11 players will be replaced in each game, but I will definitely be replaced in 4 to 5. We can't play with the same players in every game.
It's not easy about how the team deals with the high temperatures in the US summer, but it's also why we try to rotate players, which is a problem for us, but for some other teams too.
About Chelsea's opponents, Flamenco, are a very good team, organized, play beautiful football, and have many outstanding players. Flamengo coach (Felipe) is a former professional player who has played in Europe for many years and I know him.
When the Club World Cup ended, Chelsea players had been playing continuously for 11 consecutive months...
We are protecting players by "reducing the amount of training" and "prioritizing important matters" (such as adjusting game tactics).
Remarks about our previous remarks about "The Club World Cup is like a preseason for Chelsea"
After playing the Premier League and European matches, we took a few days off and started playing the Club World Cup again, so we felt like a preseason. But we know it's an important event and we're here to win and go further.
Will Chelsea consider listening to other teams' offers for Maduaike this summer?
Maduaike is our player, and you can see a lot of speculation about player transfers at the moment, but Maduaike is our player now and we think he will be our player next season.
