Overview
- Enzo Maresca signed a three-year contract to become Manchester City’s head coach on 29 June and has begun leading the club’s summer preparation.
- On 8 July City confirmed Maresca’s core backroom appointments, naming Roberto Vitiello as assistant and bringing in Willy Caballero, Danny Walker, Denis Silva and Javier Molina.
- The club assigned specific roles to the new staff with Michele De Bernardin as head of goalkeeping and Marcos Alvarez as first-team fitness coach.
- Set-piece coach James French and goalkeeping coach Richard Wright will remain in their existing roles to preserve continuity in the day-to-day program.
- Maresca’s team is built mainly from coaches who worked with him previously, a move meant to fast-track his tactical ideas as City moves into pre-season and the transfer window with the goal of restoring domestic dominance.
