Fabrizio Romano has brought the latest updates on the futures of Enzo Fernandez and Alejandro Garnacho as Chelsea consider their options.<\/p>\n
Chelsea<\/strong> ended last season in tenth place in the Premier League as the Blues sacked both Enzo Maresca and Liam Rosenior in a turbulent campaign at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n There have been fears that a number of their best players will leave this summer after they failed to qualify for the Champions League or any other European competition.<\/p>\n Marc Cucurella has already left to join Real Madrid in a deal worth around \u20ac60m with speculation that Fernandez could join his former team-mate at the Bernabeu.<\/p>\n Real Madrid released a statement denying that they will be launching a bid for the Argentina international this summer with Chelsea putting a \u00a3120m price tag on his head.<\/p>\n Providing an update on Fernandez\u2019s situation on his YouTube channel, Romano said: \u201cEnzo scored a goal for Argentina to beat Egypt in the final minutes of the game and then goes to the press and says, \u2018I\u2019m not thinking about my future. Focus now on Argentina, then we will see.\u2019 That is Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez\u2019s message.<\/p>\n READ: The top 20 biggest transfers of the summer 2026 window\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cReal Madrid already made clear finally that the deal is not happening because it was completely false that they started negotiations with Enzo, with his agents, or with Chelsea. It never happened. It was just discussed internally among names, but never concrete\u2014never even close, the Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez story.<\/p>\n \u201cNow talking about Enzo, the situation will be discussed after the World Cup. So during the World Cup, nothing will change for Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez. The agent of the player, Javier Pastore, will talk to Chelsea after the World Cup to try and understand which one could be the best solution for all parties.<\/p>\n \u201cRemember that this story started because Chelsea and Enzo were not able to reach an agreement on a new contract since the end of November, beginning of December. So the contract is still a problem between Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez and Chelsea.<\/p>\n \u201cThen let me tell you once again, after the Real Madrid statement, I saw some stories of Manchester City. From what I\u2019m aware, Manchester City are not in active talks to sign Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez at this stage.\u201d<\/p>\n Garnacho could also leave Chelsea this summer but the Blues are not interested in loaning him out and reportedly want \u00a390m for his permanent transfer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n READ: Journalist jokingly tips Man Utd to contact second Chelsea reserve midfielder after Andrey Santos<\/strong><\/p>\n And now Romano insists that Chelsea have told clubs that Garnacho is \u201cnot available for loan\u201d with his exit not \u201c100% guaranteed yet\u201d.<\/p>\n Romano added: \u201cThere is a possibility for Alejandro Garnacho to be on the move in this summer transfer window. It\u2019s not something 100% guaranteed yet, also because the pre-season is about to start. Garnacho is not at the World Cup, so he will have the possibility to work under Xabi Alonso, and let\u2019s see what happens there.<\/p>\n \u201cBut in case of a permanent deal proposal on the table, Chelsea could open doors to the exit of Garnacho. Just one year after his arrival from Manchester United, Chelsea could be open to making a switch and letting Garnacho go in this summer transfer window. So I would keep the doors open for the future of Garnacho for sure.<\/p>\n \u201cChelsea today, July, are not accepting a loan deal for Garnacho\u2014permanent or nothing. Then at the end of the window, we never know what happens because sometimes, as I always say in the market, it\u2019s not just for Chelsea, it\u2019s not just for Garnacho, it\u2019s in general: what is a permanent transfer today could become a loan with obligation to buy in August, and can become a loan with option to buy and salary covered in the final days of August. This is typical in the market.<\/p>\n \u201cBut in this case, to tell you what\u2019s going on today, Chelsea are communicating that Garnacho is not available on loan.\u201d<\/p>\n READ NEXT: Romano claims Chelsea will \u2018send new official bid\u2019 for defender after reaching \u2018agreement on terms\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/div>\nRomano: Garnacho exit not \u2018100% guaranteed yet\u2019<\/strong><\/h2>\n
