Chelsea Pursues Leicester's Enzo Maresca for Managerial Role

Posted : 27 May 2024

According to reports from British media, Chelsea is currently in discussions to appoint Enzo Maresca, the former assistant to Manchester City's Pep Guardiola, as their new head coach. Maresca, who played a significant role in guiding Leicester City back to the Premier League immediately after their relegation last year, has caught the attention of Chelsea's decision-makers with his coaching style.

 

Sky Sports reported on Monday that Chelsea has formally requested permission from Leicester to engage in direct talks with Maresca, highlighting him as their top candidate for the managerial position. His successful track record at Leicester and his coaching philosophy have reportedly resonated with the leadership at Stamford Bridge.

 

The search for a new manager comes after Chelsea parted ways with Mauricio Pochettino following just one season in charge. Names like Thomas Frank from Brentford and Kieran McKenna, who led Ipswich Town to promotion, have also surfaced in connection with the vacant managerial role. Pochettino's departure followed a season where Chelsea finished sixth in the Premier League, securing qualification for the Europa Conference League but missing out on Champions League qualification and silverware.

 

Despite setbacks like a narrow loss to Liverpool in the League Cup final and being eliminated by Manchester City in the FA Cup semifinals, Chelsea's late-season surge, marked by five consecutive wins, hinted at progress under Pochettino's leadership, securing European competition for the upcoming season.
