Chelsea have seen one of their top performers linked with a move to one of their major European rivals.
Enzo Fernandez is reportedly unhappy with the recent managerial change at Stamford Bridge, after growing an affection for Enzo Maresca during his time in charge.
Liam Rosenior looks to be building his side around Fernandez, however it remains to be seen if he can be convinced to get on board with another new managerial project.
PSG have been linked to Fernandez, and it would be very difficult for anyone to turn down a move to the current Champions League holders.

Enzo Fernandez previously described PSG as the best team in the world amid interest in Chelsea star
The midfielder has previously been very vocal in praising the Ligue 1 side, with him describing them as the best team on the planet ahead of their meeting with Chelsea in the Club World Cup final.
He told La Nacion: “Today I believe so (they are the best team on the planet), they have achieved it in recent months and their level of play has also been improving.
“We will try to prepare for the match in the best way possible. We know the team we are facing, but we are confident in our strengths. We have a great team, a great group.
“At club level, this title is very important. The best clubs in the world play, and we believe it’s a great title for the club. Chelsea has won it in the past, but obviously another one wouldn’t hurt.”
The Blues would end up dominating the European champions in that final, winning 3-0, and Fernandez played a crucial role in the victory.

Fernandez enjoying brilliant 2025/26 season
No Chelsea player has scored more goals than Fernandez in all competitions this season, and this has come from featuring in a more advanced position.
He has been allowed to become a regular box crasher, although that might be about to change slightly in order to get more from him in a deeper role.
The Argentina international started in a deeper role against Arsenal in the absence of Moises Caicedo, and he impressed greatly when being given the opportunity to touch the ball far more often.
Chelsea are also facing the threat of Real Madrid being interested in signing their superstar talent, however do have the advantage that his contract currently extends to 2031.
