Chelsea told summer deal for £107M star NEEDS TO HAPPEN!
Enzo Fernandez will never be forgiven by some Chelsea players and therefore must be sold, according to Tony Cascarino.
Fernandez faces disciplinary proceedings at Chelsea after posting a video on social media that the French Football Federation said included ‘racist and discriminatory language’.
Fernandez, who completed a £107m move to Chelsea in February 2023, said he was ‘truly sorry’ for the video, but he could yet be punished by Chelsea and FIFA over the incident but Cascarino believes only his departure from west London would satisfy some of his team-mates.
Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: ‘It’s going to be tricky. I look back at when I was at Chelsea in the 90s and I’m not sure that dressing room would be okay with what Enzo Fernandez did.
‘That’s a tricky one to handle. I think CHELSEA have got a major decision on whether they actually keep Enzo Fernandez.
‘Having players not happy with a guy in the dressing room, I’m not sure there will be many that comfortable with some of the things that have gone on.
‘There’s no excuse for that to go out. It’s not going to sit well with the other players is it?
‘I don’t know how you can handle it because there will be players who can’t forgive. There might be some who can move on despite not liking what happened.
‘You don’t need everyone to like each other at a club but this is a really, really tricky one. Some players won’t want to move on or make it work.
‘He’s going to have to apologise to the squad face-to-face as well and maybe then there will be a bit more forgiveness.’
‘It’s quite easy to see where he could go: Saudi Arabia. They’re prepared to pay big fees and big wages.’
