Chelsea £120 million-rated superstar wants to reunite with Cucurella at Real Madrid

Chelsea £120 million-rated superstar wants to reunite with Cucurella at Real Madrid Real Madrid have been moving at a rate of knots since appointing Jose Mourinho as their new manager, wrapping up the free-agent signings of Ibrahima Konate and Denzel Dumfries. Los Blancos have also gone ahead and signed Marc Cucurella from Chelsea, but it looks like they might shop for one more player from the Blues squad. One name that has re-emerged as a midfield option for Real Madrid is Enzo Fernandez. The Argentinian midfielder is among the names the club are considering for that position. Now, according to journalist Ben Jacobs , Enzo wants to join Cucurella at Real Madrid and has made no secret of his desire to leave Chelsea. The Premier League club, however, remain calm and will only consider a sale if their valuation is met, with Chelsea demanding £120 million.

Mateus Fernandes and Rodri are also on the table as Madrid evaluate different profiles for Jose Mourinho’s squad. Enzo offers intensity, passing range, personality and World Cup-winning experience, but he would be a very expensive operation. Rodri would bring elite control and defensive authority, while Mateus Fernandes may represent a younger and potentially more flexible option.

Still, desire alone will not bring Enzo to the Bernabeu. Chelsea have him under contract long term and are under no pressure to sell unless the money is right. Enzo has the quality and character to fit at the club, but at £120 million, this deal would be expensive even for a club of Real Madrid’s stature. Mourinho would also have to finalise the profile of midfielder he wants to sign, and it remains to be seen whether Madrid make an effort to sign the 25-year-old this summer.
