Chelsea’s Fernandez names his favourite EPL midfielder

Chelsea January signing and Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernandez has named the Premier League midfielder he would like to work with in the Blues’ midfield.

Fernandez revealed he likes West Ham United’s Declan Rice and has tried to learn from him after watching the England international in action.

Recall that the Argentine star moved to Stamford Bridge in a British transfer record of 106 million pounds in the January transfer window from Portugal club Benfica.

It is no news that the Blues have been strongly linked with moves for Rice in the past windows.

Aside from Chelsea, the midfielder is also highly wanted by Arsenal and Liverpool.

A clip featuring Fernandez speaking about Rice during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, went viral and spike in popularity this weekend as the Argentine World Cup winner said in the snippet: “I try to watch as much football and learn a little from everyone.

“I like [Declan] Rice of England, I try to watch him and learn.’”
