PSG target Enzo Fernandez could push for exit if Chelsea don’t qualify for Champions League
Fernandez has a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge, which does not expire until the year 2032.
However, according to L’Equipe, the Argentine could push for a transfer this summer if Chelsea fail to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
That would be good news for PSG, with the same outlet claiming that Fernandez remains on their radar.

The French champions already seem sold on the 25-year-old, but their interest could become even more serious if he performs at the Parc des Princes.
Fernandez has been one of Chelsea’s standout players this term so is a shoo-in to start for Liam Rosenior’s side.
Former Blue Frank Leboeuf has already warned PSG about Fernandez, believing that he is one player they should be worried about.

So far, the Argentina international has played eight games, scoring two goals and providing one assist across those matches.
He has helped Chelsea to wins against the likes of Barcelona and Napoli. This is the elite level, and the former Benfica man will not want to leave it.
With that being said, again, Fernandez has a contract until 2032. Regardless of what competition Chelsea are in next season, if they do not want to sell their midfielder, that should be the end of it. There is no risk of losing him on a free transfer if they reject offers and keep him in west London for another year.
