Enzo Maresca faced the media for the first time since taking charge, and by his own admission it feels "very good" to be back at the Etihad — a ground he knows well from his time as Manchester City assistant manager before departing to become Leicester City boss, according to BBC News.
The Italian's return marks a new chapter, and he used the platform to outline his footballing identity, describing his intention to set City up with "aggressive" football under his stewardship. It's a clear statement of intent from a coach determined to stamp his own philosophy on a squad already steeped in success.
Maresca was also pressed on speculation surrounding Rodri, though BBC News gives no indication he confirmed or denied any concrete transfer developments regarding the Spanish midfielder. For now, the focus remains on Maresca settling back into familiar surroundings and shaping his vision for City's future, with more details expected to emerge as pre-season progresses and his plans take firmer shape.
