Enzo Fernández Deadline Day: Chelsea Set £120m Price Tag as Man City Face Decision
Chelsea have made their position clear on Enzo Fernández ahead of the transfer deadline, with the club reportedly unwilling to sell the midfielder unless Manchester City meet a £120 million asking price.
The Blues have indicated that there will be no discount on their valuation, with the deadline set for 5pm UK time today. Chelsea are prepared to keep Fernández at Stamford Bridge if City do not agree to the full price.
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca is understood to be keen on bringing Fernández to the Etihad, while the Premier League champions have remained in daily contact with the player’s camp as they consider whether to make a final move.
City’s midfield situation has also changed significantly in recent days. They have completed the sale of Tijjani Reijnders, while Bernardo Silva’s departure has further increased the need for midfield reinforcements. At the same time, Rodri has reportedly entered advanced talks with Barcelona, potentially making Fernández an even more important target for Pep Guardiola’s side.
However, Chelsea are standing firm. The London club have no intention of allowing Fernández to leave for anything below £120m and have placed the responsibility on Manchester City to decide whether they are willing to meet the valuation.
With the deadline rapidly approaching, the situation is now at a decisive stage. City remain interested and in contact, but they must act quickly if they want to complete the deal.
The big question now is simple: Will Enzo Fernández stay at Chelsea, or will Manchester City make a £120m deadline-day move?
The final decision could come down to the wire.
