What national media are expecting from Enzo Maresca after Chelsea appointment

Chelsea have finally confirmed the appointment of Enzo Maresca as their new head coach, and the nation has been quick to react.

The Blues decided on the Italian as their new figure in the dugout, ending links with the likes of Kieran McKenna and Ruben Amorim in the process.




Maresca arrives at Stamford Bridge as somewhat of an unknown quantity, having only experienced life as a manager at Parma and Leicester City, both in the second division of their respective countries. It means he has plenty to prove at Stamford Bridge.

His success last season can be viewed as hugely encouraging after guiding Leicester to Championship glory, though a tougher test now awaits Pep Guardiola’s former Manchester City assistant.

Chelsea will be hoping for an instant improvement from their new leader as they look to get back to challenging for Champions League football, which will require several first-team players to step up and prove their worth.

Listed below is how the national media have rated the Blues’ incoming coach, with verdicts shared on whether they’ve made the correct call.
