Enzo Fernández's agent has confirmed the midfielder is actively seeking a departure from Chelsea this summer. While the club expects him to return for pre-season, Javier Pastore revealed they are exploring possibilities, though no firm offers are on the table. Fernández, contracted until 2032, has been a significant player since his January 2023 arrival.

Chelsea would reportedly demand a fee in the region of £120 million ($160 million) should Fernández attempt to force a move. The 25-year-old previously expressed a fondness for Madrid, a statement that drew criticism from Pastore. His agent also noted Fernández's close friendships in the Spanish capital.

Fernández's potential exit comes as Chelsea's new manager, Xabi Alonso, settles in. The club is also reportedly pursuing Granit Xhaka from Sunderland, having had an initial £8 million bid rejected. Fernández's future remains uncertain as transfer speculation builds around Stamford Bridge.
