The Blues boss said: "For me, winning a trophy this season - and the Conference League trophy - is a statement that you can say: 'Chelsea is back'.

"From there, it's a good starting point to building the winning mentality and winning trophies."

On the experience and impact of winning a European trophy himself as a player, Maresca said: "It's important because it shapes yourself, all the experiences do.

"The best experience in terms of winning mentality has been with Juventus, because it's a club where you realise that even in the training sessions, you want to win the small-sided games. So it's a winning mentality in all the competitions.

"It's nice to win trophies, because you learn how to win. Chelsea is a big club with many important, trophies in the past but we need to learn how to win with this squad, one that is different from the squad that won important trophies in the past here with Chelsea.

"I try to convince the players that day by day, you have to build the winning mentality. You have to win the small-sided games. The competition we are in this moment is the Conference League, then we have to win this competition.

"In the future, we can be in other competitions but at the moment, this is the reality..."
