Chelsea are showing interest in high quality French midfielder. They are keen to sign him in summer and hence are plotting a spectacular swap deal to do so.
The Blues are likely to sign another midfielder this summer. They have already parted ways with Cesare Casadei whereas Chukwuemeka and Dewsbury-Hall are also set to depart in summer. Other than this, there are many other issues that need attention.
Chelsea are concerned with the injury issues of Romeo Lavia. In addition, Enzo Fernandez is heavily linked with exit. The Argentine has strong interest from Real Madrid who may make a move in summer. That is where the Blues may force the Spanish giants for swap deal.

According to Four Four Two, the Blues are showing interest in Aurelien Tchouameni. They are keen to sign him as Enzo Maresca wants more quality in the squad. Hence, there is a chance of Enzo Fernandez and Tchouameni swapping shirts in the summer window.

Enzo Fernandez is having a good season with Chelsea. He has so far scored 5 goals and picked 9 assists and thus is playing major role for Maresca. He is tied to the Blues with contract running until 2032 and this makes the hold of Blues on him very strong.
On the other hand, Tchouameni has been linked with exit from Madrid since a long time. He has struggled to stay consistent this season. But, he was used as centre-back by Ancelotti since long time which is not his natural position.
At midfield, Tchouameni has shown mixed results. He has been superb some games but has failed to stay consistent. This may result in Los Blancos moving on from him and going after Enzo Fernandez who can bring more creativity to the side.
