“Leaving now is the best option for you, they don’t have anything to offer you so move another club” – This is according to Jamie Carragher as he tells a struggling Chelsea player that he has an opportunity to leave Stamford Bridge and rejuvenate his career elsewhere. This potential escape from a challenging chapter at the club could offer a fresh start, one the player must fully seize to regain form and confidence.

Chelsea’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall may soon have the opportunity to escape his frustrating Stamford Bridge stint, with reports linking him to potential January loan moves to Tottenham, Newcastle, and Aston Villa. After joining Chelsea in a £30 million transfer from Leicester City, the midfielder has struggled to fit into Enzo Maresca’s system and remains sidelined amidst stiff competition in a packed squad.

Despite reuniting with Maresca, who previously managed him at Leicester, Dewsbury-Hall has yet to make a Premier League start, only featuring sporadically in the UEFA Conference League and Carabao Cup. His performances, including a promising showing against Panathinaikos, have not earned him further opportunities, leaving him firmly entrenched in Chelsea’s secondary lineup.

Chelsea’s crowded midfield—featuring Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez, Romeo Lavia, and Cesare Casadei—has made it nearly impossible for Dewsbury-Hall to secure meaningful minutes. Even further up the pitch, players like Cole Palmer and Christopher Nkunku dominate the attacking roles.

While Maresca has made strides in reshaping Chelsea tactically, his uncompromising approach has left Dewsbury-Hall as a peripheral figure, with little room to showcase his potential. Nevertheless, his talent hasn’t gone unnoticed, as interest from top-tier Premier League clubs demonstrates.

For Dewsbury-Hall, a January exit could provide a much-needed lifeline. Remaining at Chelsea risks further stagnation in his career. If the opportunity arises, it’s one he should embrace to revive his form and make a fresh impact elsewhere.
