Enzo Maresca set to become new head coach

Chelsea are close to agreeing a deal for Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca to become the new head coach.

Maresca impressed the most in talks and sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart have flown to spain to conclude talks face to face with Maresca.

It is expected that Maresca will agree on a five year contract, the same as Graham Potter. Chelsea will look to back his brand of possession based Football with signings this summer.

If all finalised soon as expected, we will see an official announcement from the club in the next few days.
