Chelsea offer for Enzo Fernandez revealed. Big money and a player in the settlement

Chelsea move away from Enzo Fernandez transfer. The Portuguese daily Record revealed the Londoners’ latest offer for the 21-year-old.

The media have been linking Enzo Fernandez with a move to Stamford Bridge for several weeks now. The Blues are looking to strengthen their midfield and the world champion is set to be a priority on the English club’s wish list.

Until recently, it seemed that Chelsea were ready to break their transfer record to complete this deal. It was reported that the Londoners are ready to cover Fernandez’s release clause, which is worth 127 million euros.

Recently, however, there has been a turnaround. It turned out that Chelsea offered Benfica much less money. Roger Schmidt, coach of “Eagles”, criticized “The Blues” for the way negotiations were conducted, which we wrote more about HERE.

The Record newspaper reported that Chelsea had offered Benfica only 90 million euros. In addition, Hakim Ziyech was to move to Estadio Da Luz in the settlement. The Lisboners, however, rejected this proposal.

Benfica has made it clear that Enzo will only leave the club after paying his release clause. The “Eagles” do not have to rush to sell the Argentine because his contract runs until 2027.

Fernandez has made 25 appearances for Benfica this season. The midfielder was not called up for the next match of Schmidt’s team due to the confusion surrounding the failed transfer, more about HERE.
