Manchester City Boss Maresca Suggests Fernandez Deal Is Off After Refusing to Meet Chelsea's Deadline
City are looking at Alex Scott, Ayyoub Bouaddi and Alexis Mac Allister as Chelsea set a £120 million deadline for Fernandez talks.
- Chelsea set a 5pm UK time deadline today for any club interested in signing Enzo Fernández, requiring a transfer fee of £120m to progress the deal for the Argentina international.
- Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca, who managed Fernandez in 79 of 92 games at Stamford Bridge, monitored the midfielder due to the high probability of Rodri leaving the club this summer.
- Speaking ahead of Sunday's Community Shield, Maresca confirmed City will not pursue Fernandez after declining to meet Chelsea's deadline. He said: "Not today, to be honest. I don't think we."
- Saudi Arabian club Al-Qadsiah is on the brink of signing Tijjani Reijnders from City in a £52m deal, reflecting significant squad changes as experienced players depart.
- Exploring other midfield options, Manchester City are considering Bournemouth's Alex Scott, Liverpool's Alexis Mac Allister, and Lille's 18-year-old Ayyoub Bouaddi before the transfer window closes.
