Eden Hazard has stated his choice for the open Chelsea manager position, and it isn’t Enzo Maresca of Leicester City. With preseason approaching their return to the English top division, the Foxes are waiting to see what their Premier League opponents decide about a new star player. As we begin the new week, there are new reports indicating that Maresca, along with former Brighton player Roberto De Zerbi, is one of the two favorites after being included on a big list of applicants from around the continent.
On the one hand, it is thought that Maresca’s playing approach, which helped Leicester win the Championship and advance, has impressed the Blues technical staff, who have led the hunt. Conversely, De Zerbi—who, in his first season in England, helped Brighton qualify for Europe—has a reputation that the club’s owners value. Nobody knows how this internal struggle will conclude yet, but one former Chelsea player would completely ignore both possibilities. Even if it is late, retired winger Hazard has put out a whole new proposal, which would be a pleasant development for City.
“To be honest, I felt he performed admirably,” the Belgian responded to a talkSPORT question concerning Mauricio Pochettino’s firing, which precipitated the present events. It’s a season of transition, but I understand that many want Chelsea to finish in the top four. I wish him luck since he’s an excellent manager. Take a look at who might be present later.”The reporter then asked, “Roberto De Zerbi, who would you like it to be?”Maybe. Hazard said, winking into the camera, “I have my pal in Como too. “He can be the first manager.”
