A Leicester City midfielder is convinced a £20m Chelsea player will flourish under Enzo Maresca.

The West Londoners announced the appointment of Maresca on Monday and fans are beginning to warm to their new man.

But ultimately, Todd Boehly took the decision to bring in a younger coach with a similar philosophy to Pep Guardiola.

That said, a Leicester player believes his arrival will massively benefit one Chelsea player.
