Manchester City has officially appointed Enzo Maresca as the club's successor to Pep Guardiola‚ after agreeing a three-year deal with the Italian. Guardiola waved an emotional farewell to the Etihad during Manchester City's open-top bus parade on Monday‚ which was held to celebrate this season's Carabao Cup and FA Cup triumphs and mark an end to the manager's superb decade in charge. Daily Mail Sport exclusively revealed last Monday that the club's sponsors were among those to have been told that Guardiola would be leaving the Etihad at the close of the Premier League season‚ and detailed in the report that Maresca was a leading candidate to succeed him.

Presenter Natalie Pike jokingly sent an 'I love you' message to Pep Guardiola as she reflected on working closely with the Man City boss during his time at the club. Guardiola said an emotional farewell to Man City last month having presided over unprecedented success. His final interview on the pitch at the Etihad was conducted by Pike‚ while they spoke again during a parade in the city the following day to celebrate their FA Cup and Carabao Cup success in his final season in charge.

Manchester City win FA Cup and Hearts heartbreak at Celtic

Watching Alejandro Garnacho walk on to the field at Wembley with four minutes to go in the FA Cup Final told us much about Chelsea. Garnacho cost £40million from Manchester United. They thought it was a coup and‚ as so often is the case at Stamford Bridge‚ they were wrong. Four minutes to save a cup final. That kind of sums it up. If temporary coach Calum McFarlane really believed Garnacho had it in him to write Chelsea's name on the trophy‚ he may just have given him a little longer than that. As for Garnacho himself‚ he is still only 21. So we must be careful. Older and wiser and better players than he have been spat out of the Chelsea threshing machine. None of this is his fault.
