Enzo Maresca has been confirmed as the new manager of Manchester City, stepping into the role vacated by Pep Guardiola after the two clubs reached a compensation agreement.

Manchester City and Chelsea settled on a financial package to release Maresca from his contract at Stamford Bridge, clearing the path for him to take charge at the Etihad Stadium.

Maresca's appointment marks a significant moment for Manchester City, who must now navigate the post-Guardiola era at one of European football's most successful clubs of the past decade.
