Gianfranco Zola, a Chelsea icon, has praised the team’s newest acquisition, Enzo Fernandez.
Fernandez, who joined Chelsea in the January transfer window, was compared by Zola to former Blues player Cesc Fabregas.
Recall that Fernandez, a 2022 FIFA World champion, was acquired by Chelsea in a £106.8 million deal with Benfica.
The 22-year-old Argentine international was signed by Chelsea from Benfica, breaking Jack Grealish’s previous record for British signings at Manchester City.Fernandez has had a productive first few months at Chelsea, making an impression with his superb passing range and technical prowess in Chelsea’s last two games.”I was incredibly amazed by his qualities. His mental agility while playing, He reminds me something of Cesc Fabregas, said Zola.
