Man City open talks with Chelsea over Fernandez move

Manchester City have begun negotiations with Chelsea for the transfer of midfielder Enzo Fernandez. The two clubs are in discussions to reach an agreement on a deal, which is expected to surpass £120m, Chelsea's minimum price for the Argentina international. City manager Enzo Maresca previously worked with Fernandez at Chelsea and is eager to reunite with the 25-year-old.

Fernandez, meanwhile, is open to joining Manchester City. If an agreement is reached, the transfer could be finalized swiftly as personal terms are not a concern. This potential £120m+ purchase would be one of the club's priciest signings in recent history, following Liverpool's £125m signing of Alexander Isak just last summer. Fernandez retains a positive relationship with Maresca, who moved from Chelsea to City in June following a controversial departure from the latter's management team.
