🚨🚨EXCLUSIVE: Reece James reacts on players wanting to leave Chelsea

🗣"We had a tough season, that’s true, and nobody is hiding from that, but I don’t think it should be used as the reason for everything that’s being said about players leaving.

Just the season before, we won the UEFA Conference League and the FIFA Club World Cup, and this is still one of the top 10 biggest clubs in world football, with a history and standards that don’t just disappear because of one difficult campaign.

Football goes in cycles, and every top club in Europe goes through moments like this, but what matters is how you respond.

If players want to leave, they have their own reasons and that has to be respected. At the end of the day, you can’t force anyone to stay if they’ve already made up their mind.

And honestly, I always say this, if you have to persuade someone to help you carry the bricks, then they are not the ones you were meant to build with.

The focus should be on people who want to be here, who understand what this club stands for, and who are ready to fight to bring us back to where we belong.
