According to Si Phillips, his sources indicate that Enzo Fernandez is set to leave Chelsea this summer. It is understood that Fernandez is keen to reunite and play for Enzo Maresca again. Maresca is taking over from Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. Chelsea will not consider a sale this summer that would result in a book loss and must sell Fernandez for a minimum of £62.8m to avoid registering one. The player signed an 8.5-year contract when he joined from Benfica for £106.8m in January 2023. On Chelsea’s accounts, approximately £44m of that fee has been amortized over three-and-a-half years. The club may demand a price much higher than £62.8m but will not sell for less than that amount. Chelsea finished in 10th position in the Premier League and will not have European football next season.

According to ESPN Argentina journalist Gustavo Yarroch, Enzo Maresca wants to reunite with Enzo Fernandez at Manchester City if Maresca becomes the manager. Yarroch stated that if that were to happen and Enzo Maresca arrived as Manchester City manager, he also has an interest in Enzo Fernandez. Fernandez was recently handed an internal two-match suspension by Chelsea due to his public expressions of interest in Real Madrid. TEAMtalk understands the player's enforced absence from the team exacerbated a rift between senior Chelsea players and Rosenior. Instead of joining Real Madrid, Fernandez could now stay in England by joining Maresca at Man City. Given Fernandez cost £106.8m, is under contract until 2032, is now a better player than when he arrived, and Chelsea would be selling to a domestic rival, any move to the Etihad would break City’s all-time transfer record.
