Enzo Fernandez has flirted with a potential departure from Chelsea, and Paul Merson has now given his thoughts on it. Paul Merson’s piece for Sky Sports today was largely about Liam Rosenior and his antics over the last week.
Nicolas Jackson and Liam Delap are both being linked to Newcastle as the Magpies look to strengthen their attacking options. Transfer rumour season is coming around faster than you’d ever expect.

Liam Rosenior has confirmed Levi Colwill is hitting “all the benchmarks” he needs to as he continues his recovery from an ACL injury. Chelsea lost Colwill to an ACL injury before the start of the season, and have struggled defensively in his absence.
Moises Caicedo has been a key player for Chelsea all season, but his form is falling away just at the wrong moment. You’re starting to hear it for the first time all year – Moises Caicedo isn’t playing well.
Chelsea apparently purposely ignored a warning not to form a huddle ahead of the Newcastle game last weekend. It’s a story that has caused a lot of drama and debate in the fall out of it all, even if some people will say that it’s not even that a big of a deal.
Filip Jorgensen’s injury means Robert Sanchez is now undisputed number one for the season – for better and for worse. Filip Jorgensen is set to miss some time for Chelsea, and that’s probably going to be a good thing for the team in some ways.

Chelsea have already begun work on replacing unsettled midfield star Enzo Fernandez ahead of this summer. Sources in the industry have told me this afternoon that Chelsea chiefs are carrying out extensive work on three main targets for that position, and others could soon come into the equation too.
Enzo Fernandez is going to be offered a “record breaking” new contract according to some insiders, but we have our doubts. After a bruising defeat at home to PSG, the last thing Chelsea needed was more bad news.
Enzo Fernandez has already had a preferred summer destination if he is to leave Chelsea in the summer, but it would require a record bid, according to reports.
