Manchester City Agree £125 Million Deal to Sign Enzo Fernández From Chelsea

Chelsea gave permission for the 25-year-old midfielder to undergo a medical after City agreed a British-record fee, Reuters reported.

  • Manchester City reached a £125m agreement with Chelsea to sign Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernández, matching the British transfer record set by Liverpool's Alexander Isak last summer.
  • City turned to Fernández after pursuing Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo, following a failed August 14 deadline when Chelsea initially expected him to remain for the 2026-27 season.
  • The transfer reunites Fernández with Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca, who previously coached the 25-year-old at Stamford Bridge for 18 months, as the midfielder undergoes a medical examination.
  • Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso leads a squad reshaping that includes pursuing Monaco's Lamine Camara as a replacement, after Fernández made 170 appearances and scored 31 goals for the club.
  • With the addition of Fernández, City's summer spending reaches around £430m, following previous signings of Elliot Anderson and Ayyoub Bouaddi, as the club continues a major midfield overhaul.
