Chelsea are set to receive an offer for Enzo Fernandez from Real Madrid that includes money plus a player, according to reports in Spain.
Los Blancos have held an interest in Enzo for several weeks, with reports suggesting that Chelsea are ready to cut their losses on their club-record signing.

Fabrizio Romano has since quashed such talk, with claims that the Blues have no intention of selling the World Cup winner. Real Madrid are set to test this stance by revisiting a deal for a player who Chelsea were said to value around the €80 million mark.
In order to tempt the Stamford Bridge side into a sale, Los Blancos are readying a player plus money deal for Enzo Fernadez, Fichajes has been told by “sources close to the club”. The Bernabeu outfit will offer €40m up front and will throw in Arda Guler as a potential sweetener to the agreement.
Real Madrid hope that the combination of money and Guler’s potential are sufficient to sway Chelsea into a sale.
Competition comes from across the city. Atletico Madrid head coach Diego Simeone is said to be a big fan of Enzo Fernandez, although it is stressed that the Premier League side now see their player as untransferable and are, therefore, unlikely to make a sale.
Can Arda Guler tempt Chelsea to sell Enzo Fernandez?
Guler has an Estimated Transfer Value (ETV) of €53.1m, which combined with Real Madrid’s €40m cash offer, takes the total value of the Spaniards’ Enzo Fernandez offer to over the €90m mark.
Although the 20-year-old former Fenerbahce youngster has the capacity to have a big future in the game – data analytics firm SciSports believes that he can one day surpass any player Chelsea currently have on their books for talent – it remains to be seen if this is enough to tempt the London side into a sale.
Chelsea are in the market for an attacking midfielder, but keeping Enzo Fernandez is likely to rank higher up their priority list.
