Chelsea Set to Appoint New Manager Following Enzo Maresca's Departure

Chelsea Football Club is preparing to terminate the contract of coach Enzo Maresca with immediate effect, according to Sky Sport Italia. This decision comes after escalating tensions between the Italian coach and the London club's management over the past 24 to 48 hours.

An official announcement regarding this separation is expected in the coming hours, after which the club will begin its focus on appointing a new coach to lead the team.

Enzo Maresca departs Chelsea shortly after his arrival in the summer of 2024. While he had imposed his distinctive style on the team, his strained relationship with the club's management, particularly following his recent remarks about experiencing his "worst hours at the club" after the victory over Everton, has accelerated his imminent departure.
