Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez is ready to leave the club due to his dissatisfaction with life at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea’s new season has had a rough start with just four points from four Premier League games. Under the leadership of Mauricio Pochettino, the Blues are still trying to regain their cohesion.
But in recent weeks, a few people have shown their true colors. Enzo Fernández is undoubtedly a centerpiece of the starting eleven of the Blues.
Chelsea and Enzo Fernandez in trouble again
The Blues paid Benfica $133 million in January 2022 to acquire the Argentine. His World Cup victory with Argentina showed that he is one of the best in his position. At times, the 22-year-old midfielder’s forward carries and long passes seem to come from another planet.
Over the summer, several changes were made, including the hiring of Mauricio Pochettino as head coach and the addition of many new players. The midfield has seen significant shake-up, with the addition of players worth over $205 million like Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia.
However, Chelsea’s early results weren’t exactly there to kick off the season, like last year. A draw against Liverpool and a win against Luton Town were encouraging early results.
However, defeats against West Ham and Nottingham Forest saw the team finish the first four games of the season with just four points. Since then, some have speculated that Fernandez could leave if performances don’t improve.
Possible departure on the horizon for Enzo
Although he signed a 10-year contract, reports indicate that Fernandez is already unhappy there and wants to step down. According to Spanish media Fichajes, he is not satisfied with the direction of Enzo’s career at Chelsea.
The 22-year-old is reportedly ready to leave the club if Mauricio Pochettino fails to turn around the team’s fortunes. According to reports, this will come after six months under Pochettino. Chelsea failed to maximize their potential after spending $1 billion on arrivals. One of his most expensive signatures is to “seriously consider” a departure.
