Enzo announces he wants Board to sign ‘great player, fantastic player’ for Chelsea

Enzo Fernandez wants CHELSEA to sign Joao Felix on a permanent transfer at the end of the season

Chelsea have already spent over £600m on players since Todd Boehly replaced Roman Abramovich as owner ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.

Despite their huge spending it has been a difficult season for the club, who are 10th in the Premier League table and suffered early exits in the domestic cups.

After months and speculation and rumours – it was Chelsea that managed to secure a transfer deal for the impressive Felix after learning that he wanted a move away from Atletico Madrid.

Chelsea will consider a permanent offer for Felix if he continues to impress and the player is open to staying at Stamford Bridge, having fallen out of favour under Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone.

‘When you get on with someone off the field it helps on the field to have that special connection,’ Fernandez said of Felix.

‘He’s a great player, isn’t he? A fantastic player. He’s got lots of ability and loads of qualities.

‘He’s a key player for us, an important player and he’s on loan. Let’s hope that Chelsea can do all they can to keep hold of him come June, that would be great.’

Fernandez has also dismissed concerns his sensational price-tag could effect him at CHELSEA and says he wants to be a ‘leader’ at Stamford Bridge.

‘The amount of money that is paid is nothing to do with me,’ the 22-year-old added. ‘My job is to go out on the field and give my best at all times.

‘I know I’m still young and I need to keep learning, but at some point in the future, maybe tomorrow, maybe at some point in the future, I want to really demonstrate that I’m a leader both in the group off the field but on the field as well.’
