Manchester City have secured Enzo Maresca to become Pep Guardiola's new assistant coach.
A deal has now been agreed for the 42-year old to return to City where he was in charge of the club's development squad in 2020.
The Premier League champions had to work hard to convince Maresca though as he had a number of management offers from across Europe.
Maresca, who guided City's development squad to the Premier League 2 title, has forged a reputation within the industry as one of the best young coaches in Europe.
