With Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca reportedly on the verge of becoming Chelsea’s new head coach, fans of the Foxes are growing increasingly worried that one of their key players might follow him to Stamford Bridge.
Maresca’s Move to Chelsea
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Maresca’s switch to Chelsea is “almost done,” with the deal nearly finalized. The 44-year-old Italian is set to take on the biggest role of his managerial career, moving from the King Power Stadium to Stamford Bridge.
Leicester Fans Fear for Mads Hermansen
Among Leicester supporters on social media, there is a rising concern that goalkeeper Mads Hermansen could be the next to leave. Hermansen, who started 44 out of 46 league matches this season, played a pivotal role in Leicester’s Championship-winning campaign. The 23-year-old Danish keeper was brought in by Maresca last summer and has been integral to the team’s success.
One fan said: “I’m not ready for Enzo taking Mads from us.”
Another wrote: “If Enzo goes I can see him wanting to take Mads Hermansen with him.”
One commented: “You 100% go for Hermansen.”
Another posted: “I can bet bro he will surely go for Hermansen. He is one the player who suits his system.”
Another said: “Also they will defo come in for Hermansen, KDH and Fatawu next season.”
Hermansen’s Fit for Chelsea
Hermansen’s style of play makes him an ideal candidate for Maresca’s system. Known for his ability with the ball at his feet, Hermansen completed an impressive 1,846 passes this season, ranking 41st among all Championship players according to FBREF data. This ball-playing ability is critical in Maresca’s possession-based style of football.
Given the doubts surrounding the ball-playing qualities of Chelsea’s current goalkeepers, Djordje Petrovic and Robert Sanchez, there is speculation that Maresca might recommend Hermansen to the Chelsea hierarchy.
Who is Mads Hermansen?
Mads Hermansen began his senior career at Danish club Brondby before joining Leicester. He is set to experience Premier League football for the first time next season with the Foxes. However, with Maresca’s potential move to Chelsea, Leicester supporters are understandably worried about transfer rumors linking Hermansen to the Blues.
The Bigger Picture
As Chelsea prepares for a new era under Maresca, the club’s focus on young talent and possession-based football could see several new faces at Stamford Bridge. For Leicester City fans, the immediate concern is whether their key players, like Hermansen, will be part of this transition. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining the impact of Maresca’s move on both clubs.
