Manchester City club's head coach Pep Guardiola commented on the dismissal of the team's former specialist Enzo Maresca before the match against London’s Chelsea:

Chelsea lost an incredible, but very incredible strategist.

E. Maresca is a fantastic coach, as well as a wonderful person... This is a decision from the "aristocrats" hierarchy, there is nothing more to say.

Can the Italian become the new strategist for the "city dwellers"? These are rumors... Although you know more than I do, I do not have such news.

Do you want me to be dismissed? I still have a contract valid for another year with the Man City team.

Enzo Maresca was P. Guardiola's assistant in the 2022-23 season.

The Italian has been working with the Chelsea team since the summer of 2024.
