Paris Saint-Germain have Chelsea star Enzo Fernández on their agenda, according to L’Equipe.
The Argentina international moved to Europe when Benfica signed him from River Plate in June 2022. He left the Portuguese club for Chelsea, who invested over €120m to secure his services in January 2023.
Three months ago, Álex Grimaldo admitted Fernández’s move to Chelsea ‘killed’ Benfica. This shows the impact he had in his short spell with the Eagles. The midfielder has also showcased his qualities at Stamford Bridge.
Fernández has been a regular for the Blues and the World Cup winners. The 24-year-old was a key part of Chelsea’s squad that won the UEFA Conference League and the Club World Cup last year.
The South American has enjoyed a good run this season. Despite operating mainly in the middle of the pitch, he’s scored eight goals and contributed three assists from 30 matches.
The majority of those came under Enzo Maresca, who left the west London club earlier this month. The Blues replaced the Italian with Liam Rosenior, who saw his side lose to Arsenal on Wednesday evening.

According to L’Equipe, Fernández had developed a good relationship with Maresca. Chelsea’s decision to replace the latter with Rosenior has clearly impacted the player. Therefore, it’s stated he’s considering his future with the Premier League side even though he has a contract until 2032.
PSG have included Fernández in their target list. They are looking to take advantage of uncertainty over his future in London. The newspaper makes it clear they aren’t planning an attempt in the winter market.
L’Equipe point out, however, that Enzo Fernández doesn’t exactly have the best reputation in France. His ‘reputation has been tarnished’ after a post World Cup video in which he and others sang derogatory songs about the France squad.
Not only was it childish, but given Fernández brought up the African origins of multiple players it was also seen as racist.
