"Following Chelsea's 3-0 win over Wolves in the Premier League on Saturday, Fernandez confirmed he would use the two weeks to recuperate as he is suffering from bone edema in his knee. This season, including the Club World Cup, Fernandez has played more games than any other Chelsea player, featuring 23 times, with 20 of those appearances coming from the start. Indeed, only Marc Cucurella (1,788) has played more minutes than the Chelsea captain (1,755) in that time."
"The 24-year-old, who also missed the October international break through injury, played 83 minutes against Wolves, and had the most shots (five), final-third entries (11), passes into the final third (33) and won possession more than anyone else (eight times). He is also the Blues' third-top scorer in all competitions with five goals, and has laid on four assists, a team high in 2025-26."
Enzo Fernández has withdrawn from Argentina's squad for the international break because of bone edema in his knee and ongoing significant pain. He will rest during the two-week break to recuperate and aim for full fitness for the late-season Finalissima and the World Cup. Fernández has played more matches for Chelsea this season than any teammate, totaling 1,755 minutes, and featured 83 minutes against Wolves where he led the match in shots, final-third entries, passes into the final third and possessions won. He will miss Argentina's friendly against Angola on November 14 and had already missed the October international break.
