A Chelsea star has spoken out about the club's crowded dressing room and said that he's more comfortable with his national side.

Chelsea signed several players during the summer window, including the transfer of Jadon Sancho from Manchester United on deadline day.

Pedro Neto, Joao Felix, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Tosin Adarabioyo and Filip Jorgensen, among others, also joined the Stamford Bridge outfit this summer.

A host of players also departed, with Raheem Sterling switching to Arsenal before the transfer window slammed shut.

The huge turnover of players is causing issues within the dressing room, according to Marc Cucurella, who revealed that it is 'difficult' to build a positive atmosphere.

Cucurella said: "It is true that it is difficult, here (with Spain) everything is much easier to generate a good atmosphere.

"At Chelsea I try, but it is a time of change in which many players leave, and others come. I try to give my best. One of the keys to success in the Euro was the good group we had.

"In these tournaments you are together all day, we have to put up with each other and if we hadn’t gotten along, it would have been complicated. I try there, it comes naturally to me to create a good environment."

Enzo Maresca is tasked with providing harmony in the dressing room following his summer appointment.

And Cucurella, who inspired Spain to Euro 2024 glory, is happy with the Italian coach being at the helm.

"I’m happy, I think the coach we have (Enzo Maresca) is very good, he has very clear ideas," he added.

"We come from years of changing coaches, let’s see if we can gain stability without many changes and that the coach can transmit his ideas.

"We need stability, we have high-level players, and I hope we can have that patience that is needed, that calm, so that everything goes well.

"We have the level, we just need stability and letting the coaches and players work to do something important."
