Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca has announced that new £125m signing Enzo Fernandez will not be part of the leadership group this season, despite having previously captained him at Chelsea. Ruben Dias will serve as captain, followed by Erling Haaland, Marc Guehi, and Gianluigi Donnarumma. Maresca expressed excitement about Fernandez’s arrival, noting he is “ready” to debut against Coventry and that his teammates are eager for his inclusion. Meanwhile, Chelsea’s Xabi Alonso acknowledged Fernandez’s contributions but emphasized the need for the club to move forward.
