Enzo open to new Chelsea deal?

Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez has not ruled out the prospect of signing a new long-term deal with the Blues this summer.

The Argentine was recently suspended by the Blues for two matches after talking up a potential move to Real Madrid.

Fernandez’s future has been put into question, but the midfielder has not closed the door on a new contract at Chelsea.

The World Cup winner is the third highest earner at Chelsea at £180,000 per week and he may want a sizeable pay rise.

Furthermore, Champions League qualification could be another key factor in convincing him to stay beyond the summer.

Chelsea are presently one point behind fifth-placed Liverpool in the Premier League with seven more games left.

Real Madrid are closely watching the midfielder’s situation and could swoop for his services if he gives the green light.

Chelsea are expected to demand at least £100 million to part ways with the 25-year-old midfielder in the next transfer window.
