Following their separation from Mauricio Pochettino last week, Chelsea are reportedly close to hiring Enzo Maresca, manager of Leicester City, as their new head coach going ahead.
Since that news broke, Chelsea have been quite busy, but it appears that Maresca is on the verge of joining as a replacement for Pochettino.The bulk оf Chelseа fаns hаve vоiced their disаpprоvаl оf his selectiоn, аnd rightfully sо. In my оpiniоn, this is аn extremely dаngerоus gаmble thаt the club’s decisiоn-mаkers shоuld be very wаry аbоut since it cоuld hаve seriоus cоnsequences.
As a coach, Maresca is completely inexperienced and has never held a managerial position in the Premier League. Even Leicester’s fans were on his case last season when it appeared like the club would lose its grip on the Premier League—a feat he accomplished—but it wasn’t without its challenges.
Concern over this nomination is understandable among Chelsea supporters.If Maresca’s transfer to Chelsea goes through as planned, he may be interested in acquiring a new goalkeeper.
The Daily Mail reports that Maresca is known to be an admirer of Ederson’s playmaking abilities at City and is eager to have a goalkeeper with similar qualities.
Maresca may need to bring in a new ball-playing goalkeeper if he wants to achieve what is detailed in the article, since existing goalkeepers Robert Sanchez and Djordje Petrovic have serious reservations about their ability to keep the ball.
Sanchez and Petrovic don’t quite fit that description right now, but they definitely have potential to grow.
