The City Group are already preparing to launch their project with Palermo and they’re planning on starting it with Enzo Maresca at the helm.

Reports today detailed how the Manchester City owners are preparing to finalise their purchase on Palermo, picking up yet another club under their City Group banner. Other clubs owned by the company include Melbourne City, New York City FC and Troyes.

As detailed by La Gazzetta dello Sport, former Juventus and Sevilla midfielder Maresca is currently being lined up by the City Group as the coach to launch the Palermo project.

In August 2020, Maresca was hired by Manchester City to be their Under-23 coach and he immediately found success, winning the Premier League 2 title. He then spent a few difficult months as head coach with Parma in Serie B, being dismissed in November 2021.

Maresca will be hoping to prove his quality as a coach in Sicily and the City Group believe in his capabilities.
