  "account": "Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca expressed optimism about new signing Ayyoub Bouaddi, praising the highly-rated 18-year-old Moroccan midfielder who played at this year's World Cup. Bouaddi, who joined City from Lille on a five-year deal, was described as fit and calm despite his young age. Maresca emphasized the need for patience as the teenager adapts to life in England, stating that there's no rush for him. He also provided an injury update, revealing that midfielder Elliot Anderson is fine after coming off with cramp, while Matheus Nunes is not 100% and Jeremy Doku remains out. Maresca confirmed the departure of forward Omar Marmoush, with discussions ongoing regarding Jack Grealish, but declined to comment on potential transfer targets, including Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez.",
