Liam Rosenior will now have a very strong idea of which Chelsea players he is going to be building his squad around as his tenure in charge continues.
Rosenior has been in charge for four games in four different competitions so far, and has given opportunities for a clean slate following their time under Enzo Maresca.
Even Axel Disasi has been spotted in first team training, however reports are still stating that he could be on the move before the January transfer window closes.

Despite looking to rotate where possible, Enzo Fernandez is one of the individuals who has featured in every game Rosenior has been in charge of, scoring and assisting across those games.
Liam Rosenior a huge fan of Enzo Fernandez
The Argentine’s performances were always going to be under scrutiny after he had excelled during Maresca’s tenure, however he has made a brilliant start under the new boss.
Rosenior told ‘The 2 Robbies’ that he is already a massive fan of Fernandez for his ability to play in three positions in the midfield.
He said: “Yeah, I love Enzo because he’s world class in all of the roles you’ve just mentioned. You can play him as a deep lying six, you can get out on the ball and make 100 passes a game. You can play him as an eight, as a box to box.
“He can arrive in the box and score goals but also defend his own box. And you can play him as a ten because he can connect, he can create assists and score goals. He’s just a magnificent footballer.”
Fernandez still linked with Chelsea exit
Given the quality the World Cup winner possesses, it is no surprise a number of big clubs have been linked with signing him.
What’s an acceptable transfer fee for Enzo Fernandez? 💰
PSG have recently been reported as interested in Fernandez, and it would be difficult for anyone to turn down a move to the European champions.
Real Madrid hold a long-term interest in Fernandez too, and Chelsea will be braced for offers to come their way in the near future.
However, given the significant transfer fee they paid for him, it would likely end up being close to a record sale for the Blues should they decide to part ways.
