The new manager of Chelsea, Enzo Maresca, has outlined two things he intends to do as the new coach of the side.

 

Chelsea confirmed the appointment of Enzo Maresca earlier today, June 3, 2024, barely two weeks after sacking coach Mauricio Porchetino who led them to the Carabao Cup final and the FA Cup semi-final in the just-concluded season.

Recall that Pochettino also helped Chelsea to finish 6th, a season after the side finished below the top ten. But despite that, the owners of the side led by Todd Boehly decided to part ways with him.

They have brought in Enzo Maresca who is relatively a novice in terms of managing an elite side like Chelsea who are keen on winning major titles as often as possible.

Even though it was only at Leicester City that Maresca has experience in winning a title as a manager (the 2023-2024 EFL Championship), the former Pep Guardiola’s assistant manager at Manchester City believes he can continue Chelsea’s tradition of winning major titles.

Note that coach Enzo Maresca signed a five-year contract with Chelsea which will keep him at the club until June 30, 2029, all things being equal.
