Newly confirmed Champions League manager Enzo Maresca is not wasting a second at Stamford Bridge! After sealing Chelsea’s return to Europe’s elite with a narrow 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest, the Italian tactician has unveiled bold plans to reinforce the squad with four major signings—focusing primarily on attacking reinforcements.
Sources reveal Maresca’s wishlist includes:
A proven striker, with Benjamin Šeško, Viktor Gyökeres, and Liam Delap under consideration after missing out on Victor Osimhen last summer.
A dynamic left-winger, with previous interest in Alejandro Garnacho suggesting the type of player they’re targeting.
A new centre-back to offer support and competition to Levi Colwill.
A potential midfield addition, possibly Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton, to complement Enzo Fernández, Moisés Caicedo, and Romeo Lavia.
Maresca, backed by Chelsea’s board after delivering top-four football in his debut season, is determined to reshape the squad ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup and the grueling 2025/26 campaign. With youthful talents like Dario Essugo, Andrey Santos, and Geovany Quenda also in the pipeline, Chelsea’s rebuild under Maresca is gaining serious momentum.
Expect fast moves—Maresca wants his summer business wrapped up early for maximum squad cohesion before preseason kicks off. Stamford Bridge is being re
armed for war.
