Trouble at Chelsea: Enzo Fernandez Dropped from Squad Over Comments

Chelsea manager Liam Rossinier has announced that Enzo Fernandez will be unavailable for the team's next two matches. The decision stems from recent comments made by the player. A few days ago, the Argentine midfielder gave an interview hinting at an uncertain future with the London club and expressing a desire to live in Madrid.

“I spoke with Enzo an hour ago. As a club, with my involvement in the process, we decided he would not be available for tomorrow’s match (against Port Vale) and against Manchester City next Sunday. I think it’s disappointing for Enzo to speak in such a manner. As a person, I can’t say anything bad about him, but a line was crossed regarding our culture and what we aim to build, which is why we had to impose this sanction,” Rossinier stated.

“I have immense respect for Enzo as a person and as a player for what he has achieved. He is frustrated because he wants to be successful. Regarding the decision to remove him from the squad, it was a collective decision involving the sporting directors, owners, and players. The door is not closed for Enzo. This is not a punishment,” he added.
