Barcelona are keeping tabs on the situation of Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernandez at Chelsea. Although the chances of signing him are very difficult.
The Sun, a British media outlet, reported that Fernandez is being watched by big clubs Barcelona and Inter Milan. After losing his position as a regular in Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea team for several games. UFABET
Fernandez has started nine of the first 10 Premier League games of the 2024-25 season. Starting six and coming off the bench in three of the last three. With Maresca preferring midfield pairing Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia to start all three games. Because of their strengths and tackling.
For this reason, Barcelona are keeping a close eye on Fernandez’s situation. As are Inter Milan, and if things don’t change until the end of the season. They could try to approach him.
However, Barcelona’s main obstacle is the transfer fee for Fernandez, who currently has a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge until 2031. And Chelsea do not want to lose on the £106.8m they paid for him from Benfica. Even though the 23-year-old’s future is currently unclear.
As a result, Hansi Flick had to rely on academy prospects to cover for this position. First, it was Marc Bernal who impressed the German tactician during the team’s pre-season tour of the USA. He was the starting midfield pivot for Barcelona at the start of the season, but his ACL injury derailed a highly promising season for him.
