Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has described Enzo Maresca’s shock departure at Chelsea as a loss to the Blues.
Chelsea announced the news of Maresca’s departure on New Year’s Day, with his final game in charge being the 2-2 draw with Bournemouth on Tuesday.
The Blues had also been beaten by Aston Villa after picking up a point away at Newcastle and currently sit fifth in the Premier League, three points behind fourth-placed Liverpool.
Guardiola was asked about the situation of the Italian manager ahead of the clash between the two teams on Sunday, soon after his side’s eight-game winning streak came to an end with a goalless draw at Sunderland on Thursday.
“We won’t talk much if we don’t know which manager will be there, and I don’t know what’s going to happen. Concern is thinking about yourself, and our people are going to help us with two tough games against Chelsea and Brighton.
“Chelsea have always been dangerous, and the Premier League is dangerous every game. All I can say is that from my point of view, Chelsea has lost an incredible manager and an incredible person. It’s a decision from the Chelsea hierarchy, so I’ve nothing to say. How lucky I am in the club where I am. My club is extraordinary.
“I have a contract. I say a thousand million times, I know you’re bored of me, I’ve been here for ten years and I promise you I will leave one day but I have a contract, I’m happy, I want to fight with my team, the hierarchy respect me, they proved last season when we didn’t win one game in three months and they supported me,” Guardiola said.
