‘We can compete for the league’ - Mikel Obi backs Maresca for EPL title next season
Super Eagles legend John Mikel Obi believes Enzo Maresca has the potential to compete for the Premier League title.
In January, Sanchez was at fault for a goal against Wolverhampton Wanderers, prompting manager Enzo Maresca to drop him from the starting lineup for four consecutive Premier League games.
Sanchez has since returned to the starting XI, but Chelsea are already exploring alternatives.
According to FootballFancast, the Blues are interested in signing AS Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar, who is also being pursued by Bayern Munich.
Svilar's current contract with Roma expires in 2027, and the club will put up a fight to keep their man.

Roma boss Claudio Ranieri has praised Svilar's performances this season, saying:
"Mile is having a fantastic season. When a goalkeeper is not very busy and is suddenly called into action, showing readiness at all times like Mile does, then it means that he is truly a great goalkeeper."
Signing a reliable goalkeeper is one of Chelsea's top priorities for next season, along with acquiring a new striker and left winger.
