Vialli, Zola, Sarri. The Italian tradition of Chelsea, between the field and the bench, has distant roots and seems destined to continue. Fresh from promotion to the Premier League with the Leicester, Enzo Maresca he is in fact very close to becoming the new coach of the Blues.
The Foxes, for their part, are available to give the London club the green light to discuss with the former Juventus midfielder, among others. The two London sporting directors, Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart, will fly to Marbella in the next few hours for a face-to-face meeting with Maresca.
