Chelsea have joined a group of Europe's top clubs in showing their interest in Argentina's World Cup star Enzo Fernandez. The 21-year-old started every match after being substituted on against Mexico in the second group game and completed 120 minutes in the final too.
Having only joined Benfica from River Plate over the summer Fernandez was a relative unknown for most heading into the tournament but he also impressed in the Champions League too. In a group with powerhouses Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, Fernandez helped his side to finish first, going unbeaten.
He only cost £10m six months ago but already has a much higher price on his head after becoming the answer to Lionel Scaloni's midfield puzzle. Playing alongside the equally impressive Alexis Mac Allister and Rodrigo De Paul, Fernandez is now being chased by a handful of eager teams.
