Olivia Rodrigo pulled up to Manchester United vs. Chelsea
Atletico Madrid midfielder ‘identified’ as possible Chelsea signee
Head coach Enzo Maresca is largely satisfied with the personnel he has at his disposal after successfully cutting down on the size of his first team at Stamford Bridge.
While the backup players have made enough of an impression in the Conference League, the Blues have responded by producing results that have moved them up to fourth position in the Premier League standings.
Players like Cesare Casadei and Kieran Dewsbury-Hall are currently thought to be capable of making an impression in Europe but are still a long way from starting in the Premier League.
Thus, between now and the January window, Moises Caicedo, Romeo Lavia, and Enzo Fernandez will essentially be vying for two spots in the Chelsea engine room.According to reports, Fernandez might begin to draw interest from several European teams if he is unable to return to the starting lineup for games in the top division.
It would not be shocking if Chelsea looked for a good replacement if an exit became a genuine possibility.
Fichajes claims that Pablo Barrios, a midfielder for Atletico, has surfaced as a possible addition to Chelsea’s center of the pitch roster.
The 21-year-old has made 68 appearances overall across all competitions after graduating from the club’s academy.
He has made six starts in La Liga so far this season, and his lone assist came in the early-season 2-2 draw at Villarreal.
According to the report, Chelsea would be willing to spend up to β¬50 million (Β£41.91 million) for Barrios during one of the next transfer windows.
