Fabrizio Romano has claimed on Twitter that Chelsea are in talks right now with Benfica to try and sign Enzo Fernandez this month.
The Blues reignited their interest in the Argentina international over the weekend, with them looking to put the final touches on a sensational January.
A midfielder feels all that is required to near-enough complete the rebuild at Stamford Bridge that was required after the dire start to the season.
However, Romano has stated that there is a meeting taking place right now as Chelsea have reached the fee which Benfica were requesting, albeit in different payment terms.
He said: “Meeting ongoing between Chelsea and Benfica for Enzo Fernández. Talks are taking place right now as Chelsea will push until the end.
“Chelsea proposal: €120m in different instalments. No issues on player side and personal terms.”
The Blues have been well-documented in their approach for a midfielder this month, with them also showing plenty of interest in Brighton’s Moises Caicedo.
While these two players offer very different strengths, there is no doubting they would each be quality additions to a top team.
This perhaps explains why Arsenal have seemingly overtaken the Blues with a desire to sign Caicedo, despite Brighton’s resistance to part ways.
The player himself is very keen on a move to London, however it appears as if Chelsea’s interest has cooled for now as they look to bring in Fernand
ez.
