Real Madrid Eyes Chelsea Star Enzo Fernandez as Toni Kroos’ Replacement – Will the Blues Let Him Go ?

Chelsea’s midfielder Enzo Fernandez is said to be on Real Madrid’s radar as Florentino Perez has seen in the youngster a possible successor of the club’s former star midfielder Toni Kroos.

Lately, the Real Madrid Confidencial reported that Fernandez is considered one of the most promising players in football, which of course, attaches a great deal of importance to him as one of the top priorities to join Los Blancos.

Fernandez has great technical ability, a vision, and a good temperament usual for the Real Madrid footballing style. However, Real Madrid was not the only Spanish Club that showed interest in the 22-year-old talent.

Atletico Madrid was also reported to be following the youngster’s moves actively which puts them in a competition with their city rivals.

However, whichever way, there will be a lot of problems in trying to sign Fernandez. Chelsea spent big money to sign the Argentine international from Benfica, having paid €120 million for his signing.

Fernandez secured his future at Stamford Bridge by penning a new contract that made his transfer hard both financially and in terms of possibilities.

If any other club is to lure him out of the Chelsea stable, then they would have to come up with an exciting proposal which would make Chelsea let go of Enzo Fernandez, one of their valuable players.

Enzo Fernandez Is A Close Replacement To Toni Kroos

Furthermore to this, Fernandez’s position within the Chelsea organization under manager Enzo Maresca, The midfielder was initially struggling as a result of rotation in the team, however, he was back to being an important player for Chelsea’s recent matches.

A string of performances against the likes of Leicester City, Aston Villa, Southampton and Tottenham have all helped him to re-establish his relevance in the Blues team dynamics.

That is one of the reasons Chelsea is highly unlikely to sell him in the first place.

However, Perez sees in Fernandez an attractive option fit to replace Kroos in Madrid’s midfield, regardless of the difficulties, signing Fernandez would not only help boost the roster at the moment but would also allow the club continuously build for one of its most critical positions.

Nevertheless, we do not believe any serious attempts of negotiations have taken place as of this point, although the idea of Fernandez signing for the Santiago Bernabeu instead of staying at Stamford Bridge will surely put a twist to the upcoming months.

For now, Enzo Fernandez continues to concentrate on his Chelsea obligations but Los Blancos persistent advances may later on result to the potential mega-signing.
