Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandes is reportedly set to leave the club at the end of this season.
According to TEAMtalk, Real Madrid are interested in signing the 25-year-old South American midfielder and could include the player in the deal to lower their asking price.
Chelsea will demand a big fee for Fernandes, while Real Madrid could include players such as Jacobo Ramon (Como’s central defender) and Chema Andres (Stuttgart’s defensive midfielder) as part of the deal. Both players have performed very well for their respective clubs this season and Chelsea will be monitoring them closely.
Real Madrid have the option of bringing them back to the club and it would be no surprise if they decide to use this clause and sign both players. They could then use them to sign Fernandes.
The 25-year-old midfielder has been special for Chelsea, scoring 15 goals this season. He also recorded seven assists. His departure will be a huge blow to Chelsea. However, the player could be attracted to the idea of joining Real Madrid. Chelsea will not be playing in Europe next season and Fernandes will want to compete at the highest level. It would be difficult to turn down the chance to play for Real Madrid.
It remains to be seen whether Chelsea are willing to accept cash and two players in a deal with the 2022 World Cup winners. Ramon and Andres are excellent young players with bright futures. Chelsea could develop them into stars over the next few seasons.
Real Madrid need more creativity and control in the center of the park and Fernandes could change that for them. He will score goals with his passing and vision and will propel the team forward. He is at the peak of his career and it is the perfect time to join an elite club that can regularly compete for league titles and the UEFA Champions League.
