La Liga apparently has interest in Leicester City head coach Enzo Maresca.
Maresca moved to Leicester last summer after honing his skills as Parma’s manager and Pep Guardiola’s assistant at Manchester City.
The Italian managed to deliver promotion for the Foxes, who won the Championship title, in his first season at King Power Stadium.
As a result, the East Midlands team will rejoin the Premier League after a year out. However, because of problems with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability rules, the return to the top flight may not be smooth.
Maresca’s team may lose points at the start of 2024–25, however the exact penalty for breaking the rules has not yet been determined.
La Liga club monitoring Maresca situation
Moreover, Leicester and Maresca have a difficult task ahead of them in terms of adequately enhancing the first team roster; it may be necessary to make at least one sale in order to make room for new players.
It’s unclear how that circumstance will affect Maresca’s future, although the 44-year-old has a deal with Leicester that runs through 2026.
Sevilla is reportedly considering Maresca as they think about how to handle their own managerial crisis, according to the Daily Mail.
Sevilla has been playing quite well lately, taking in 13 of a possible 15 points to guarantee that they will not be relegated and that they will still be able to finish in the top 10.
In his 21 games in charge, Quique Sanchez Flores has racked up 10 victories and 4 draws, indicating that he might be the best candidate to guide Los Nervionenses ahead.
However, the source states that Sevilla is considering whether to contact Maresca after being pleased by his style of play.
Other clubs hold an interest
Maresca is reportedly on the short list of teams in the Premier League and throughout Europe, but it’s unclear if he would be willing to leave a position that has been effective thus far.
Flores, meanwhile, has less than 14 months left on his Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan contract, and he may have done enough to win over most of the team’s supporters.
But with four games left, including matchups against Villarreal, Athletic Bilbao, and Barcelona, Sevilla will have a difficult finish to the season.
