Barcelona could once more spoil Chelsea's transfer plans as the deadline for the January window gets ever closer. Despite signing seven players this month alone for nearing £200m, the Blues are still embroiled in dealings to get Enzo Fernandez to the club to top it all off.
The Argentine superstar appeared close to a move earlier this month but talks collapsed and football.london understands negotiations have re-opened since. With Fernandez keen on a move and Chelsea certainly determined to get their new number one midfield priority there is excitement over a late window major move.
Not everything has been straightforward this month though. Moises Caicedo was a target but the £75m Brighton have put valued him at appears to be too much. Other deals have gone through swiftly and quickly as Todd Boehly asserts his authority on the football landscape once more.
