EPL: It’s all done – Details of Chelsea’s new manager revealed
Football market expert Fabrizio Romano said a deal between Chelsea and Leicester City for manager Enzo Maresca is all but done.
Chelsea dismissed Pochettino after the last Match Day of the Premier League despite the Argentine qualifying them for Europe.
They have since been in the market searching for a top manager to lead the Blues next season.
Enzo Maresca led Leicester City to immediate return to the Premier League after they were relegated to the Championship last season.
Romano said a deal worth about 10 million euros have been agreed between both clubs.
According to him: “Chelsea are about to complete the agreement with Leicester for Enzo Maresca — it will cost around €10m.
“Clubs set to agree also on fee for the staff, deal to be signed in the next few days.
“It’s all done between Maresca and Chelsea on deal until 2029 + option, as reported today.”
