Officialization is imminent: Enzo Maresca is very close to signing his contract with Chelsea to become the new manager of the London club. The young 44-year-old Italian coach will succeed Mauricio Pochettino, who was fired at the end of the season. The Leicester coach, who managed to bring his team back to the Premier League, will sign a long-term 5-year contract with the residents of Stamford Bridge.
Former assistant to Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, Enzo Maresca was more convincing than Thomas Frank, Roberto De Zerbi and Kieran McKenna, who were also tipped to become the future coach of the Blues. It was in particular the quality of play of his teams, based on an obsession with possession, which made the difference for the Chelsea leaders. To release their coach, Leicester requests payment of his release clause, which would be between 8 and 10 million pounds sterling (between 9.4 and 11.7 million euros). The contract should be signed before the end of the week.
