Man City agree £125m fee for Chelsea's Fernandez

Manchester City has agreed to sign Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez for a fee that could reach 145 million, making it one of the most expensive transfers in football history. The deal, confirmed on transfer deadline day, September 1, 2026, will see the Argentina international undergo a medical before completing a move to the Etihad Stadium. The agreement ends a period of intense negotiation between the two Premier League clubs. The transfer fee is reported to be at least 120 million, with the total package potentially rising to 145 million. This would match the joint-British record set when Liverpool signed Alexander Isak for 125 million last summer.
