Chelsea are reportedly set to appoint Leicester boss Enzo Maresca as Mauricio Pochettino’s successor.
The Italian
manager is open to joining Chelsea despite earning promotion with the Foxes
into the Premier League last season.
Mail
Sport reported last week that Chelsea had begun the process of holding formal
interviews with candidates and multiple sources are claiming Maresca is the
club’s leading contender to replace Pochettino who left the club last week.
Now, it
has been reported that he is the preferred choice to replace Mauricio
Pochettino, and Chelsea have asked for Leicester for permission to speak with
the 44-year-old.
An
appointment could be made in the next few days if and when an agreement is
reached with Leicester over compensation. Chelsea are willing to pay
compensation, with a fee of around £10m expected.
