Leicester manager Enzo Maresca ‘being monitored by English clubs’ after winning promotion back to Premier League


ENZO MARESCA is being linked with Sevilla and a string of English clubs after taking Leicester back to the Premier League in his first season.

The ex-Parma chief’s suitors will be encouraged by the Italian asking to sit down with the Foxes to discuss things he “didn’t like”.

Maresca has also admitted some “problems” over not being able to splash out in the January transfer window.

Sevilla have been mentioned in connection with their former midfielder for several months.

The LaLiga club’s current boss Quique Sanchez Flores is due to leave when his contract runs out this summer

And journalist Guillem Balague, a friend of Maresca, says a handful of English teams have also shown interest in the 44-year-old.

Leicester’s flowing style, as they pipped Ipswich to the Championship title by a point, has won many admirers.

And the Foxes are expected to hold talks with Maresca soon.

It’s understood he’s unhappy with the club’s communication over Financial Fairplay issues – which led to an allegation of  breaching profitability and sustainability spending rules.

And star midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is tipped to be a summer transfer target for Prem rivals.

For now, though, Maresca is departing with his jubilant squad for a three-day break.

And although Balague revealed some sticking points, he also confirmed the ex-Manchester City academy coach IS keen to stay with Leicester.

It comes after striker Jamie Vardy and wife Rebekah led wild street celebrations of Championship glory.

Poignantly, however, Leicester’s players also displayed a picture of former owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, who died in a helicopter crash outside the King Power Stadium six years ago.
