Man City in talks with Chelsea over Enzo Maresca compensation fee

Manchester City have opened formal negotiations with Chelsea over a compensation fee for Enzo Maresca as they move closer to appointing him as Pep Guardiola’s successor.

The discussions are now being handled at legal level by both clubs, with Maresca still technically under contract at Chelsea for more than three years after his exit in January.

Talks focused on final financial terms

City are pushing to reach an agreement within the week as they accelerate their managerial succession plan.

While the overall framework of Maresca’s return is largely in place, several key details are still being finalised.

These include the timing of his official appointment, the structure of his coaching staff, and other contractual conditions tied to his proposed deal.
