A journalist discussed the situations of multiple teams in his program column, among which he also provided updates and reports on the head coach position at Chelsea.
Excerpt:
"Many people have asked me what type of coach Chelsea would admire if Enzo Maresca leaves in 2026. Everyone, Chelsea is currently focused on cooperating with Maresca. The club is very satisfied with Maresca, and that’s the current situation.
But if we talk about Chelsea’s potential coaching options for the future, there is one manager they definitely hold in high regard—and that’s because he is already part of the Blues’ group-owned club Strasbourg. He is Liam Rosenior, who has done an excellent job at Strasbourg, a club under the Chelsea Group umbrella. However, this is merely admiration for someone familiar internally with whom they have a working relationship—that is the key point here.
But for now, claims that Maresca will definitely leave, that Maresca will join Manchester City, that Pep Guardiola will depart Manchester City, and that Chelsea is preparing for the future—we are not at that stage at all. It is December now, and Maresca is fully committed to his work at Chelsea. So for the time being, this is nothing more than mutual appreciation between both sides.
Therefore, this is all I can say. We are merely bringing this matter up, and we will see how the coaching situation develops in the coming months."
