Chelsea look set to make a late push to sign Enzo Fernandez before the January transfer window slams shut. The 22-year-old continues to be heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge as Graham Potter looks to bolster his midfield.
The Blues are expected to approach Benfica with another proposal for Fernandez before the end of the month, football.london understands. Chelsea made the Argentina international a priority target before the new year and they held several rounds of talks over a deal.
And, now, that time has come if reports are to be believed. According to The Telegraph, the west Londoners have reopened talks with the Portuguese giants in what seems to be one final attempt before the deadline on Tuesday evening.
