Manchester City and Chelsea have reached an agreement for Enzo Fernandez.

The deal for the Argentine midfielder is now in place. As reported, the two clubs finalised an agreement in the last few minutes for the transfer of the former World Cup-winning midfielder from the Blues to Enzo Maresca’s side. The Manchester City manager was keen to work with Enzo Fernandez again after their previous spell together at Chelsea.

Born in 2001, Enzo Fernandez has been a Chelsea player since January 2023. During that time, he made 169 appearances and scored 31 goals, while also winning the Club World Cup and the Conference League. The Blues had signed him from Benfica for 121 million. At international level with Argentina, the 2001-born midfielder won the 2022 World Cup and was on the losing side in the 2026 final.
