Man City agree to sign Fernandez from Chelsea for British record fee - reports

Manchester City completed their summer transfer spending with a landmark deal on Tuesday, agreeing to sign Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernandez from Chelsea for a reported British record-equalling £125 million ($169.08 million). The 25-year-old Fernandez joined the English club after posting a farewell message to Chelsea on social media.

Manchester City, already the most successful club in England, made history by smashing their transfer record for the second time in the summer window. The deal was finalized just 30 minutes after the window closed at 2300 BST (2200 GMT).
