Chelsea Star Enzo Fernandez Remains Out of Lineup Despite Apology to Team

Liam Rosenior said Fernández apologized, but Chelsea will keep the two-match internal ban after comments about Real Madrid.

  • On Friday, Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior confirmed midfielder Enzo Fernández will miss Sunday's Premier League clash against Manchester City, upholding an internal two-match suspension despite the player's apology.
  • Fernández was suspended last week after courting Real Madrid during an ESPN Argentina interview, where he said, "I'd like to live in Spain, I really like Madrid."
  • Rosenior insisted that "football is a team sport," rejecting claims that benching a key player damages competitive integrity and emphasizing that Chelsea's discipline upholds core club values.
  • While Rosenior expressed hope Fernández will be a "massive part of the group moving forward," he revealed "a few hurdles" must be overcome before the midfielder returns to action.
  • Transfer options appear scarce for the 2022 World Cup winner, as financial constraints at Real Madrid and Barcelona limit potential moves, leaving his immediate future uncertain.
