Manchester City is set to undergo a significant change as manager Pep Guardiola prepares to leave the club. The announcement marks the end of Guardiola’s tenure, which has been characterized by considerable success.
According to prominent journalist Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City’s management has reached an agreement with Enzo Maresca, a 46-year-old Italian coach, to take over as head coach. Reports indicate that Maresca is expected to sign a three-year deal, with all terms already finalized pending his signature.
Currently a free agent after departing Chelsea in January, Maresca is familiar with Manchester City’s structure, having served on Guardiola’s coaching staff from 2022 to 2023. Prior to that role, he developed talent within the club’s youth teams.
