Real Madrid have officially shut down mounting speculation linking them with a summer move for Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández, releasing a definitive statement to distance themselves from the Argentine.
Rumors regarding Fernández’s future at Stamford Bridge intensified earlier this week when his agent, Javier Pastore, publicly fanned the flames by stating, “Who doesn’t like Madrid?” With reports hinting that the World Cup-bound midfielder was keen on a switch to the Spanish capital, Los Blancos moved swiftly on Friday morning to quash the narrative.
In a comprehensive official release, the reigning La Liga champions denied holding any talks, citing their strong institutional relationship with Chelsea as a primary reason for addressing the “unfounded” speculation directly.
The Official Statement
Real Madrid made their stance unequivocally clear, emphasizing that no contact has been made regarding a potential transfer:
“Given the information and demonstrations that have appeared in recent days about an alleged interest of Real Madrid C. F. by the player Enzo Fernández, the club wishes to state that it has not carried out any, direct or indirect, management aimed at the hiring of the aforementioned player and, likewise, has no intention of undertaking such an operation.”
The club further expressed their utmost respect for Fernández’s quality and career, while firmly defending their principles of institutional loyalty toward Chelsea. Madrid’s hierarchy noted their regret that false information continues to circulate, generating unnecessary confusion among fans and harming the entities involved.
