The Italian kicks off preseason as new Chelsea manager today.
Maresca said, “One of the reasons I’m here is because I’m convinced the squad is very good and full of talent.
“The most important thing now is we’re able to create the right culture that drives us for the season.
“I always say the same: if you are able to improve players then you are able to improve the team. So it’s our target to try to improve all of them day by day.”
Of his approach, Maresca also said: “We are going to try to be an aggressive team on the ball and off the ball and we need to create this connection between the fans and the club, especially at home.
“When you have your own fans behind the team pushing, it’s like playing with 12 players and this is what we have to create here.”
