Enzo Fernandez’s desire to leave Chelsea in this transfer window has been well-documented.
After failing to reach an agreement over a new contract, Fernandez has become unsettled at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea’s failure to qualify for the Champions League has not helped matters either. However, there is no guarantee that the midfielder gets his move this summer.

PSG out of the running to sign Enzo Fernandez
Real Madrid’s interest is yet to materialise into anything, while Manchester City have played down speculation about signing Fernandez as they prioritise bringing in Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest.
Paris Saint-Germain are now the latest club to downplay interest in the 25-year-old.
According to BBC Sport, PSG are distancing themselves from Fernandez after reports claimed that they were keen on him.
Fernandez impressed against PSG when Chelsea faced the French giants in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.
It seems he did not do enough, though, to convince PSG to make a big-money offer for him in this transfer window.
Former PSG attacker Javier Pastore now represents Fernandez and has promised him a move, but securing one is becoming a more difficult task.

Real Madrid or bust for Enzo Fernandez
Chelsea are believed to value Fernandez at £120m. It means outside of PSG, City and Real Madrid, there are not too many other clubs who can afford the Argentine.
Simply put, Fernandez is running out of options. With PSG and City no longer interested in him, he now faces another season at Chelsea if Real Madrid do not come knocking.
It is probably not what Fernandez wants, but he decided to sign an eight-and-a-half year contract when he joined Chelsea from Benfica in 2023. The Argentina international has to acknowledge that the Blues hold all of the power here.
There is a long way to go and Fernandez’s focus will be on the World Cup, but you could not blame him for feeling concerned at this point.
