Maresca hails Cherki as ‘one of Europe’s best players’

Manchester City head coach Enzo Maresca has praised the quality of attacking midfielder Rayan Cherki, describing the 23-year-old Frenchman as one of the best players in Europe.

Maresca also acknowledged that Cherki can sometimes spend too long on the ball and drift away from his assigned position. When that happens, the midfielder becomes less effective and poses less of a threat.

Cherki has made 11 appearances for Manchester City in all competitions this season, scoring six goals and providing two assists.
