Real Madrid Confidencial Simeone Contacts His Agent to Sign With Atleti and Leave Madrid 'Hanging'
El Cholo has contacted Enzo Fernández's agent to convince him to join a very Argentine Atlético
Enzo Fernández's Future Could Take an Unexpected Turn. The Argentine midfielder from Chelsea is one of Atlético Madrid's great desires, and Diego Simeone has personally made a move.
The Atlético coach has reportedly already contacted the player's camp to try to convince him to sign for Atleti and disregard Real Madrid's interest.
The case is reminiscent of what happened with Mario Hermoso. At the time, Atlético got ahead of Real Madrid, who had rights over the center-back when he was at Espanyol. Now, Simeone seeks to repeat the move with Enzo.
Enzo, the Great Desired in Madrid
The Argentine is a highly desired piece. Both Florentino Pérez and Simeone are closely following his evolution at Chelsea. The English club doesn't consider him expendable, but the excess of players in the squad and the need to free up salary mass could open the door to his departure.
Additionally, the arrival of Quenda and Dário Essugo increases the competition in the midfield of the London team. Enzo could find himself relegated and seek a new destination where he can continue to be important.
Simeone has always had an eye on Enzo. In fact, he already tried to sign him before he went to England. This time, Cholo has a great ally: Rodrigo De Paul, Enzo's teammate in the Argentine national team. Their friendship and the good atmosphere in the Atlético locker room could influence the decision.
The player, world champion in 2022 with Argentina, hasn't spoken about his future yet. But his camp is already aware of Atlético's interest.
Real Madrid Wants to Respond
Real Madrid isn't sitting idly by. According to TEAMtalk, the white club is considering making a great effort to sign the Argentine. They are even considering a swap with Tchouaméni, whose market value is similar: about 80 million euros.
Enzo has a contract with Chelsea until 2032. However, both Real Madrid and Atlético are willing to do anything to get him.
The duel between Simeone and Florentino is set. And Enzo Fernández will be the main protagonist.
