Real Madrid, dethroned in Spain and unpicked in Europe, are once again peering across the Channel for midfield salvation. As reported by The Guardian, the Spanish giants have identified Enzo Fernández as a key target this summer as Xabi Alonso prepares to usher in a new tactical era at the Bernabéu.
Yet Chelsea are resolute. The word from Stamford Bridge is clear: Enzo is not for sale. Fernández, who has enjoyed a stabilising season under the stewardship of Enzo Maresca, remains central to Chelsea’s long-term plans. “There is no panic at Stamford Bridge about the noise around the Argentina international,” the report notes, and for good reason.
