Fernandez ‘didn’t hesitate’ over record Man City move
The Argentine midfielder completed his move from Chelsea on transfer deadline day for a British record-equalling transfer fee of £125 million.
Manchester City has signed Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernandez for a British record £125 million transfer fee, as confirmed in his first interview since joining the club. The 25-year-old, who previously played for Chelsea and Benfica, expressed that he did not hesitate for a second when contacted by Manchester City. This move marks City's expenditure surpassing £450 million in a single transfer window, setting a Premier League record.
Fernandez, sent off during Argentina's World Cup final defeat to Spain in July, joins City after a five-year deal, alongside England's Elliot Anderson, who moved from Nottingham Forest for £116 million. City's new manager, Enzo Maresca, who previously coached Fernandez at Chelsea, will oversee a significant rebuild following the departures of Rodri, John Stones, and Bernardo Silva.
Fernandez expressed his excitement about working with Maresca and the challenges of joining a club that has achieved remarkable success in recent years.
