Chelsea could be heading towards a defining moment in their long-term project. The Blues are ready to make a major decision on Enzo Fernandez.
The midfielder has been an important part of Chelsea’s squad under Enzo Maresca. However, the Blues are going through a transition under their new manager Liam Rosenior.
So, they will be looking to reshape their squad. That is why they have made a massive decision on the future of the Argentine World Cup winner.
According to TEAMtalk, the Blues are open to listening to offers for Enzo Fernandez if a suitable proposal lands on the table this summer.
The Argentina international arrived at Chelsea in January 2023 for a then British-record £106.8 million and has since grown into one of the most influential figures in the squad.
Now, Chelsea have not actively put Fernandez up for sale. But intermediaries have reportedly informed several top European clubs the Blues will negotiate if they submit an important bid.
Real Madrid are among the sides made aware of the situation and they are monitoring these developments closely.
Also, Chelsea’s ownership are keen to maintain flexibility as they reshape the squad. Furthermore, they want to raise funds through major sales.
Then, they will spend the money earned towards signing a new striker and an elite centre-back. Transfer News Live has already reported that the Blues are negotiating for a defender in January.
Alongside Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich have also been linked, suggesting this situation could develop quickly once the summer window opens.
🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Chelsea have indicated to Real Madrid they would be willing to sell 25-year-old Enzo Fernandez this year.
The Argentina midfielder would be open to the move to Spain but the Blues have made it clear that he will only be sold for the right price.
