Leicester City have allegedly reached out to Maurizio Sarri as a potential replacement for Enzo Maresca, who is anticipated to join Chelsea this summer.

However, according to Sportitalia, the ex-Lazio coach is uninterested in the Leicester position, waiting for more enticing offers.
Sarri, who departed from Lazio in March, is reportedly taking his time to choose his next club.
He has been associated with Fiorentina, Bologna, and Panathinaikos but has not made any commitments yet.
Leicester, recently promoted back to the Premier League after clinching the Championship title, had hoped that Sarri’s experience, which includes winning the Europa League with Chelsea, would make him a suitable choice.

Despite their celebrated history with Italian managers, notably Claudio Ranieri’s Premier League triumph.
Leicester City stunned the football world by winning the Premier League title in the 2015/16 season.
Under Ranieri’s management, they finished 10 points ahead of the competition, securing 81 points compared to second-place Arsenal’s 71.
Even with this, Sarri remains disinterested in joining the Foxes at this point.
