According to Fichajes, Real Madrid are plotting an inventive way to bring Chelsea to the negotiating table to sign Enzo Fernandez. The Spanish giants are now willing to offer Eduardo Camavinga plus cash for the Argentine mainstay amid the high asking price for the Blues’ midfielder.
Enzo Fernandez remains a big dream for Florentino Perez over at Real Madrid, as the Spanish club looks to build their midfield to another level. The La Liga giants have kept tabs on the Argentine midfielder for a long time, and his current performances will not see them turn their backs on this chase.
Some reports from recent weeks have indicated that Real Madrid are willing to sell Eduardo Camavinga and others to fund a move for Fernandez. Signing the Argentine star, who has 15 goals and assists this season, will be difficult, with the Blues demanding a massive transfer fee in return.
As per the report, the Londoners are demanding at least €120 million, but other stories have indicated they could seek as much as €140 million. Such a price point will be deemed unattainable by those in charge at Real Madrid, which is why they are thinking of a more inventive way to convince the Blues.
Real Madrid are now ready to offer Camavinga plus €60 million in cash to convince Chelsea to sell Fernandez. The 23-year-old utility man from Madrid is a player the Blues have held an interest in, but they already have a few players who play his role in the team. Fernandez will be a challenging pursuit for Real Madrid, as they may not be able to convince Chelsea with this player plus a cash offer.
Camavinga is a player of interest to a lot of other teams, with Chelsea also part of the equation. However, losing Fernandez in exchange for the 23-year-old utility man and cash. The Blues are set to stick with their stance and the high asking price, as they will reportedly prioritise financial gain rather than bringing the Frenchman as part of the deal.
At present, Real Madrid may not consider paying over the odds for the Argentine midfielder, as Chelsea have the power in negotiations to determine Fernandez’s future. At the moment, the idea of a departure might seem difficult, even though the midfielder would reportedly be open to the idea of playing at the Bernabeu.
