Maresca appointed as Manchester City manager on three-year deal

Enzo Maresca replacing Pep Guardiola was Manchester City's long-term strategy, something the Italian's former club Chelsea have changed since his exit.

The bravest man in the business, Enzo Maresca, has been appointed as Manchester City's new manager. The Italian's honours list may be more modest than Pep Guardiola's, but he does have history already at City, winning the Premier League 2 and being part of Pep's backroom staff during the Treble season. City have fought long and hard for Maresca, and paid Chelsea compensation, so they are convinced he is the man to continue the wave of success at the club.

Manchester City have formally announced Enzo Maresca as their new manager amid Chelsea claims that the Italian will personally pay compensation for the move.

Enzo Maresca has one of the hardest acts to follow in football history as Pep Guardiola's replacement. Why have Manchester City chosen the former Chelsea boss as their new manager?

Manchester City have finally landed their man. Over a month since Pep Guardiola announced he would be leaving as manager, Enzo Maresca has been appointed as the replacement on a three-year deal. Senior City sources say they have no ill feeling towards Chelsea and that the now-resolved contractual dispute was between the Stamford Bridge club and Maresca.

Chelsea felt Enzo Maresca had his “head and heart” focused on an opportunity to succeed Pep Guardiola at Manchester City during his time at Stamford Bridge. City have confirmed the appointment of the Italian on a three-year contract after agreeing a compensation package with Chelsea, amounting to £17 million ($22.

Enzo Maresca paid some of Chelsea’s compensation claim himself in order to become Manchester City’s new manager. The 46-year-old Italian, who resigned as head coach at Stamford Bridge midway through last season, has signed a three-year contract at the Etihad Stadium.
