Uncertainty at Stamford Bridge is fuelling fresh transfer speculation over the Argentine midfielder
Enzo Fernández’s future at Chelsea is already under scrutiny, despite the arrival of a new head coach who has made the midfielder central to his plans. Liam Rosenior has been in charge for just a short time, yet Fernández has featured in both matches under his leadership, scoring from the penalty spot in the FA Cup win over Charlton and remaining heavily involved against Arsenal.
Rosenior has been quick to praise Fernández’s influence, particularly following the defeat to Arsenal, but optimism around his role has been tempered by reports suggesting the Argentine is growing weary of the ongoing instability at Stamford Bridge.
Since arriving at Chelsea, Fernández has already worked under multiple managers, including Enzo Maresca and Mauricio Pochettino, and that constant turnover appears to be testing his patience.
Those concerns have been amplified by renewed interest from Paris Saint-Germain, who are reportedly monitoring the situation closely ahead of the summer transfer window.
Journalist Uriel Iugt has claimed that the Ligue 1 champions have already taken initial steps, even if a deal remains complicated.
“PSG has Enzo Fernández in its sights for the upcoming season. The interest is concrete and so far there has only been an informal contact with his entourage,” Iugt said.
“The French club knows that his departure from Chelsea will not be easy. He has a contract until June 2032.”
Rosenior’s tactical plan versus growing outside interest
On the pitch, Rosenior has begun reshaping how Fernández is used. Against Arsenal, the midfielder operated in a deeper role than he had in recent weeks under Maresca.
Whether that was due to the absence of Moisés Caicedo or a deliberate tactical adjustment, the change was clear. Fernández saw more of the ball and was positioned to dictate play from earlier phases of possession.
That shift hinted at a broader plan to maximise his influence and underlined how highly Rosenior values him. The concern for Chelsea is whether tactical trust alone will be enough to offset broader frustrations about direction and continuity.
PSG’s interest carries added weight given Fernández’s past comments about the French side, whom he has previously described as the best team in the world. That admiration makes it difficult to imagine him dismissing a move outright if Chelsea’s situation fails to stabilise.
