Enzo Fernandez, a midfielder for Benfica, is now attempting to transfer to Chelsea before the deadline on Tuesday.
According to reports, Enzo Fernandez has changed his mind about staying with Benfica and is now pushing to join Chelsea before the January transfer window closes tomorrow. The involvement of super-agent Jorge Mendes appears to have helped the negotiations move forward.
In recent years, Fernandez has emerged as one of the best young players in world football. He has excelled since joining Benfica in the summer and with his commanding performances for Argentina during their World Cup victory in Qatar this winter.
Chelsea and Benfica have been in talks for a few weeks, but no agreement has been reached.
Chelsea's effort to satisfy Fernandez's €120 million (£105.4 million) release clause by giving the cash in installments was rejected by Benfica, who have been determined that Chelsea must pay that sum.
FERNANDEZ received punishment from Benfica earlier this month for trying to compel a transfer to Chelsea by skipping two training sessions.
After scoring in Benfica's victory against Varzim in the Portuguese Cup, the midfielder then seemed to indicate that he wanted to continue his celebration in front of the club's supporters.
However, recent sources claim that Fernandez has changed his mind and has told Benfica that he wants to sign with Chelsea before the transfer market shuts on Tuesday night.
