Pep&#8217;s departure from Stamford Bridge has not been smooth sailing following the shocking news that his decade as a &#8216;civilian&#8217; was coming to an end, but Pep has emerged as the clear front-runner to succeed the Spaniard in the role. Nevertheless, despite the controversy that arose, it is true that the separation was done by mutual consent. <\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\" class=\"ue-c-article__paragraph paragraph\">However, recent information has made this problem even more serious. At the time, Maresca was said to have revealed, among other things, the possibility of Guardiola&#8217;s replacement during a club board meeting with City. Neither side commented on it, but in the current situation everything has changed. Chelsea will demand compensation from City. According to the Telegraph, these were all part of the terms of his departure from the London club, where he was threatened to reveal what had happened in the months leading up to his departure. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"ue-c-article__media ue-c-article__media--video  video-player\"><figcaption class=\"ue-c-article__media-caption\" itemprop=\"description\">\n<p><span class=\"ue-c-article__media-description\">Erling Haaland falls in love with British croissants<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"ue-c-article__subheadline\">Complaint to Prime Minister<\/h2>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\" class=\"ue-c-article__paragraph paragraph\">For an appeal to be successful, the Londoner would need to file an appeal with the league itself. If so requested, the Premier League is obliged to investigate the facts as set out in the terms of its own regulations. This process is expected to begin from the moment Maresca is appointed as City&#8217;s new manager. Given the importance of giving a man like Guardiola a farewell befitting his stature, an official statement may be delayed. <\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Links P\u00e1rrafos\" class=\"ue-c-article__paragraph paragraph\">Maresca keeps a low profile. He has not spoken publicly since leaving Chelsea. Most likely, his next media appearance will be for a hypothetical presentation or announcement by City. This will be his return to Manchester as he has worked there twice. The Italian was already in charge of the Under-23s in 2020\/21, took charge of Leicester in the Championship and was Guardiola&#8217;s assistant in 2022\/23, just before ultimately signing for Chelsea. The atmosphere is tense. Let&#8217;s see what happens. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marca.com\/en\/football\/premier-league\/2026\/05\/19\/tension-in-the-premier-league-chelsea-considers-reporting-city-over-the-move-involving-maresca.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea are preparing to launch a legal battle with Manchester City if Guardiola is replaced by former manager Enzo Maresca.
