As the Chelsea team gets ready for the 2024–25 campaign, they have named Enzo Maresca as their new head coach. With the option to extend his contract for an additional year, the Italian is moving from Leicester City to Stamford Bridge on a five-year deal. He takes over in the hot seat from Mauricio Pochettino, who departed by mutual consent.
In order to match his Pep Guardiola-inspired style of play, the new Chelsea manager will be keen to add fresh players to his roster. With Tosin Adarabioyo seemingly close to a free transfer, the Blues appear to be very close to making their first summer signing. In addition, as previously mentioned, Enzo Maresca had his eye on a Sheffield United centre-back valued at £20 million.

Following their relegation to the Championship, Sheffield United will have to fight to hold onto the centre-back this summer. A likely departure from Bramall Lane this summer, 25-year-old Anel Ahmedhodzic of Sheffield United has set lofty goals for himself.
A crucial member of the Championship-winning team, the defender continued to play a significant role in the Premier League’s difficulties the previous season.
Along with Chelsea, Italian powerhouses Atalanta and Napoli have been mentioned as potential suitors for the star defender in the most recent report from The Mirror. According to reports, the Blades are looking to pay a high price for his services in the forthcoming window, with a price tag of £20 million.
