Manchester City appears to be close to a major signing, according to a report by Fabrizio Romano. As the renowned reporter notes, the “Citizens” have reached a final agreement to sign Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernández, but for the deal to be finalized, Chelsea’s demands must be met.
Both sides are committed to a contract through 2032, with the 25-year-old having been acquired in 2023 from Benfica for 121 million euros. As reported in *To Nisi*, the London club is not willing to budge from the 100 million euros they are demanding.
