A new era at Chelsea: Enzo Maresca departs, is Xavi next?
As Xavi has already openly admitted his desire to manage in the Premier League, a long-anticipated change has taken place at London club Chelsea. Italian coach Enzo Maresca has ended his spell at the club after less than two years in charge.
For the Blues, who managed just one win in their last seven matches, the final straw was a 2–2 draw against Bournemouth. The whistles from the Stamford Bridge stands forced the club’s hierarchy to take decisive action.
“Since I joined the club, the last 48 hours have been the worst, because many people did not support us.”
— Enzo Maresca
All attention is now focused on Barcelona legend Xavi. Currently a free agent, the coach has expressed his readiness to work in the Premier League, which could make him an ideal option for the London side.
