Although his Chelsea future was rated by the club, he remains unclear because he could borrow reports about the Blueco Sister Club Strasbourg.
Paez was depicted in April with Ligue 1 outfit. Reports from L’Equipe indicate that the club evaluated it before a potential step.
At the beginning of this month, he spent the Ecuador national team and played for 14 minutes in a goalless draw to Peru. His future Chelsea teammate Moises Caicedo completed 90 minutes in the ties.
Maresca has now confirmed that Paez is at the Chelsea squad at the Club World Cup.
He said, “Kendry [Páez] is with us. He asked to spend and train time with us.

“We will see what the plan is in the next few weeks.”
Paez, a versatile striker, will be exposed to a considerable competition for minutes if he stays with Chelsea next season, and could benefit from the opportunity to spend a campaign in Ligue 1.
The potential for him to move to Strasbourg was reported at the beginning of this month, with Mathis Amougou taking the same step.
Chelsea sent two players to Strasbourg last season in Andrey Santos and Djorde Petrovic.
Maresca also confirmed that Reece James and Nicolas Jackson missed the training in the impressive Philadelphia heat that touched 40 ° this week.

He continued: “Reece did not train because he was sick. Levi Colwill was also sick, but he took part in the meeting.”
He also confirmed that Nicolas Jackson, who would miss the Tunis tie when he served a red card suspension with a game, was spared the weakening conditions.
“Nico was not at the meeting this morning. It is the day before the game and it wasn’t with us.”
