Manchester City is set to undergo a change in club traditions under the guidance of Enzo Maresca. The Italian coach plans to personally appoint the next captain following Bernardo Silva’s transfer to Real Madrid. Previously, under Pep Guardiola, the leadership hierarchy was decided by a vote among the players.
Phil Foden, a product of the club’s academy, is a leading candidate for the captaincy. The 26-year-old midfielder has expressed his readiness to take on the responsibility amid a wave of veteran departures. Other contenders for the role include Ruben Dias and Marc Guehi. The situation remains uncertain regarding Rodri, who is attracting interest from Barcelona. Maresca is determined to restore the Premier League title to City after two seasons without the championship.
