There was a sour note at the end of Chelsea's commanding 3-0 win over manager-less Wolves after star midfielder Enzo Fernandez revealed he's been playing with a worrying injury, which has ruled him out of playing for Argentina. Fernandez put in a top shift for the Blues, but delivered a concerning update which means he will miss the forthcoming international matches against Angola.
Chelsea made it back-to-back league wins at the expense of managerless Wolves on Saturday night as the Blues cruised to a 3-0 victory on home turf.

The result, meanwhile, leaves Wolves rooted to the foot of the table with just two points from the opening 11 games.
The supposed love triangle that Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez finds himself at the centre of has taken a new twist, with Wanda Nara furiously denying that she was looking to enter into an affair with the Argentina international.

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca has confirmed midfielder Enzo Fernandez has missed his side’s trip to Nottingham Forest through injury, but allayed fears over the severity of the problem by saying it is “not a big concern”.

Chelsea are holding their breath after key midfielder Enzo Fernandez withdrew from international duty with a knee problem. Fernandez joined up with the Argentina squad earlier this week having played the full 90 in Saturday's 2-1 win over Liverpool.

Further first-team stars have had to push through the pain and continue to play.
Benfica boss Jose Mourinho made an astonishing intervention during the Champions League clash with Chelsea after Portuguese fans started hurling objects towards Enzo Fernandes.

Chelsea looked to have stolen all three points over local rivals Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium, before a last-minute tap-in by Fabio Carvalho earned the Bees a 2-2 draw. The Blues had taken the lead thanks to second half goals by Cole Palmer and Moises Caicedo. The Blues had fallen behind to Kevin Schade's opener in the 29th minute.
Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez claimed that Cole Palmer and Ezno Fernandez are the two most important figures in the Blues dressing room.

Chelsea's star midfielder Enzo Fernandez believes the Blues can win the Club World Cup by beating Paris Saint-Germain in the final. The Blues will start as underdogs against a PSG side who have won every trophy on offer in the 2024-25 campaign and have displayed fiery form in the Club World Cup thus far. Yet, the Argentine feels that they can upset the European champions.
