Enzo Maresca has agreed to leave Chelsea after just 90 matches in charge of the club. The Italian was due to return to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday when the Blues hosted their Premier League rivals but this will no longer be the case.

Maresca had seemed to be on borrowed time for a few weeks following his controversial comments after beating Everton 2-0. He told reporters: "Since I joined the club, the last 48 hours have been the worst because many people didn't support us," before stating: "Worst 48 hours since I joined the club, because people didn't support me and the team, in general."
