Manchester City have opened talks with Chelsea over a move for Enzo Fernandez, according to Sky Sports.
The Argentine midfielder joined Chelsea from Benfica in 2023 in a then-British record £107m deal, but his role at Stamford Bridge appears to be diminishing. Fernandez started Chelsea's opening Premier League fixture against Fulham this season, yet was omitted entirely from the squad for the Carabao Cup tie with Luton and left out again for the meeting with Brighton.
Those absences will fuel speculation over his long-term future under Chelsea's current setup, with City reportedly viewing him as a potential midfield reinforcement.
No further details on valuation or contract terms have been disclosed, and Chelsea are yet to comment publicly on the talks reported by Sky Sports.
