Chelsea agree to part company with manager Enzo Maresca after growing tension

Chelsea have decided to part ways with head coach Enzo Maresca with immediate effect, bringing an abrupt end to a turbulent chapter at Stamford Bridge.

According to respected journalist Fabrizio Romano, an official club statement is still pending while all formalities have already been completed following escalating tensions over the past 24 to 48 hours.

The decision was not triggered by a single match result or short-term performances, but rather by a breakdown in alignment between Maresca and the Chelsea hierarchy.
