At this point, I think it feels impossible to scroll through football news without seeing Enzo Fernández linked with Real Madrid again. Every single week, a new update drops, and the rumours just keep getting stronger instead of fading away.

Honestly, I can understand why Madrid is interested in him because Enzo is one of those midfielders that can completely change the flow of a game when he’s on form. His passing, vision, composure on the ball, and fighting spirit are qualities any top club would want in their team.
Reports are now saying that Real Madrid has already made contact with his agent because they see him as an important midfield reinforcement for the future. Madrid is obviously planning ahead, and Enzo seems to fit the kind of profile they like.
What even surprised me most is hearing that Enzo himself is reportedly open to the move. I mean, it’s Real Madrid, so it’s not exactly shocking. Many players dream of playing there at some point in their careers. Still, as a Chelsea fan, hearing those rumours over and over again is definitely uncomfortable.
Chelsea, on the other hand, is not acting desperate to keep him if the right offer comes and valuation is met. The club reportedly wants around £120 million, which is close to €140 million, before even thinking about letting him leave. If that amount is eventually paid, it would become Chelsea’s biggest sale ever.
I personally still feel Chelsea should hold on to him. Even though the club has struggled in recent seasons, because Enzo still looks like one of the players that can become a major part of the rebuilding process. There were games last season where you could clearly see his quality, especially when he had good movement around him even in the absence of Cole palmer.
At the same time, football today is all about money and big opportunities. When Real Madrid comes calling, things can change very fast and we have seen it happen many times before.
It’s still just rumours and speculation, but I have a feeling this story is going to follow Chelsea fans throughout the entire transfer window. Whether he stays or leaves, this is definitely one transfer saga people will keep talking about.
