"I had a great conversation with Enzo at length this morning before training, not just about his comments but how he is feeling, how as a team we can improve. He is one of the captains at the club and what I will say is that he made it really clear how happy he is here at this club, how much he wants to win and how passionate he is for us to be successful."
"He also said that in translation and in emotion, things get misconstrued. For me, he is fully committed to this group and to winning here at this football club."
"Fernandez, who joined Chelsea for a then British record of £107m from Benfica in January 2023, said "I don't know" when asked if he wanted to stay at Chelsea. The 25-year-old added: "There are eight games left and the FA Cup. There's the World Cup, and then we'll see.""
Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior addressed concerns about Enzo Fernandez's commitment after the midfielder's unclear remarks regarding his future at the club. Fernandez had responded with "I don't know" when asked if he wanted to stay at Chelsea following their 8-2 aggregate Champions League exit to defending champions PSG. Rosenior held a lengthy conversation with Fernandez and confirmed the 25-year-old midfielder is happy at the club and passionate about winning. Fernandez, who joined Chelsea for £107m in January 2023, has contributed 18 goal involvements this season. Rosenior attributed the midfielder's comments to translation and emotional miscommunication, emphasizing Fernandez's full commitment to the team's success.
