Chelsea's attention returned to Premier League action yesterday evening after Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali spent the final days of the January transfer window pulling all the stops to secure the club-record signing of Enzo Fernandez.
The World Cup winner finally earned his move to Stamford Bridge on deadline day for a fee in the region of £105million, making him, not only the club-record signing, but the Premier League's most expensive incoming.
Despite the expensive price tag floating over his presence, Fernandez made his Chelsea debut in fine fashion with a comfortable display against Fulham on Friday evening, but it was a disappointing evening for Graham Potter's men overall. Failure to overcome Marco Silva's stubborn Fulham - who have now taken four points off their London rivals for the first time since 1976 - leaves them quite the distance off the UEFA Champions League places.
