Who is Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez?<\/h2>\n

Enzo Fern\u00e1ndez is a central midfielder for Chelsea and Argentina, rated among the best in the world in his position for his passing range, vision and composure. He broke through at River Plate and Benfica before joining Chelsea in January 2023 for a British-record fee of around £107 million. At just 21 he was a key part of Argentina’s 2022 World Cup triumph, winning the tournament’s Young Player Award, and he added the 2024 Copa Am\u00e9rica. Born in January 2001, he is now 25 and the metronome at the base of Argentina’s midfield.<\/p>\n\n
