Manchester City eyes Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez amid transfer uncertainty
Summary

As the summer transfer window nears its end, Manchester City has identified Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez as a potential target. Concerns surround the future of players like Rodri and Tijjani Reijnders, with City looking to strengthen their midfield. Reports indicate that while there is interest from City, Chelsea is unlikely to sell Fernandez, expecting him to remain for the 2026-27 season. Relations between the clubs have also soured following Enzo Maresca's move to City, complicating potential negotiations. A formal move for Fernandez is deemed improbable, especially considering Chelsea's high asking price and the timing of the window.
