Enzo Maresca’s dad found after disappearing 'without trace' in Turkey following Man City Champions League win

Enzo Maresca’s father has been found after he was reported missing in Istanbul after Manchester City’s Champions League Final win over Inter.

The Italian coach, who has been linked with the Celtic job, is part of Pep Guardiola’s backroom staff and invited his dad to Turkey with him for the showpiece occasion. City won 1-0 thanks to Rodri’s second half strike, winning them the competition for the first time. But Maresca’s celebrations were shelved when it became clear that his father couldn't be found.

Police in the city were informed and after searching for Maresca senior, reports in Italy say he has now been found. The organisation and infrastructure surrounding the game were heavily criticised. Traffic came to a standstill in the Turkish metropolis, with many fans having to abandon their transport miles from the stadium and start walking in order to make it in time for kick-off.
