Real Madrid is reportedly closing in on a massive €120 million deal for Enzo Fernandez, a transfer that could send shockwaves through the Premier League, putting Liverpool and Manchester United on high alert for a different midfield target.
While the transfer isn't finalized, sources suggest the move for Fernandez is highly probable. Chelsea, who were previously linked with the midfielder, are reportedly willing to sell for a fee exceeding €120 million, paving the way for Real Madrid's pursuit.
The potential acquisition of Fernandez by the Spanish giants could trigger a significant domino effect. If Real Madrid secures Fernandez, they may need to offload a current midfielder. This scenario has reportedly placed Manchester United and Liverpool on standby, both keen to capture Aurelien Tchouameni should he become available and express interest in a Premier League switch.
Meanwhile, Chelsea faces the prospect of needing to replace Fernandez if the deal goes through. With substantial funds expected from the sale, speculation points to Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton as a prime candidate to fill the void.
