Manchester City have reportedly suffered a major setback in their pursuit of central midfielder Enzo Fernández, with claims that the Argentine midfielder has rejected a proposed contract offer.
City have been heavily linked with Fernández as they look to strengthen their midfield ahead of the new campaign. The Chelsea star has emerged as one of the club’s priority targets, with his passing range, work rate and ability to control the tempo of games making him an attractive option.
According to the reported scenario, negotiations over personal terms have failed to reach an agreement, leaving Manchester City facing uncertainty over whether they can complete the move.
However, this claim conflicts with the latest reports, which state that City have agreed a £125 million deal with Chelsea for Fernández and that the player is increasingly keen on the move.
