Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca has publicly reaffirmed his trust in midfielder Enzo Fernandez, emphasizing that his decision to limit the player’s appearances in the Premier League is purely tactical. Fernandez, a talented Argentine midfielder, joined Leicester with high expectations, and despite his limited game time in England’s top-flight league, Maresca assures fans that he remains integral to the club’s plans.
“I still trust Enzo Fernandez; there’s no reason I can lose confidence in him,” Maresca said in a recent press conference. “He’s going to play many games for sure.” This clear statement of faith aims to quell any speculation about Fernandez’s future at Leicester, underscoring Maresca’s confidence in the young player’s abilities.
The Leicester boss added, “The reason he isn’t playing in the Premier League is because I made a different decision. My confidence is 100% with Enzo.” Maresca’s remarks highlight his commitment to managing the squad strategically, even if it means certain players see more limited action in specific competitions.
As Leicester navigates its season, balancing Premier League and cup commitments, Maresca’s approach reflects a strategy to maximize the squad’s potential in the long term. Despite limited playing time in the league, Fernandez is expected to have ample opportunities to prove his worth, and Maresca’s backing suggests he will be key to Leicester’s future.
