Manchester City Eye Enzo Fernández Reunion With Maresca

Manchester City’s midfield rebuild under Enzo Maresca may still have one more twist before the window shuts.

City are expected to formalise interest in Chelsea’s Enzo Fernández, with reports claiming Chelsea would demand more than £120m. Fernández was left out of a midweek cup squad amid speculation about his future, while Chelsea continue other incomings of their own.

A deal of that size would reshape both clubs’ midfields heading into Champions League Matchday 1 — and test whether City can still move at the top of the market after a busy summer.
