Reece James didn't look happy and got right in there.

The players don't seem to be lacking passion at the Club World Cup, even after their very long season.

We might end up seeing a feisty second half now...

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has indicated that the Blues will definitely sign a left winger this summer.

Jadon Sancho won't be joining the cub after they refused to pay the £25 million obligation to buy from Manchester United.

Instead, Chelsea opted to pay a penalty fee.

They have also seen a move for Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund stall.

But Maresca has tried to ease any fears Chelsea fans might have.

Speaking ahead of their opening game at the Club World Cup against LAFC, he said: "Jadon is not with us so for sure that is a position [winger] we need to do something.

"We have Noni [Madueke], Pedro [Neto] and Ty [George] only as the proper wingers so something for sure is going to happen.

"When the transfer window is open, for sure, we can do something."
