Manchester City are refusing to cool their interest in Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez despite missing the deadline to make a bid, with the Blues having set a £120m asking price for the Argentina international. Chelsea had given City until 5pm last Friday to make an offer, but no bid was submitted as Enzo Maresca’s side continue to explore midfield reinforcements before the transfer window closes.
Arsenal are bracing themselves for a flurry of late transfer activity as interest in teenage sensation Ethan Nwaneri continues to intensify across the continent. The 19-year-old is now the subject of a multi-club tug-of-war involving some of Europe’s biggest names, with offers expected from clubs in Italy, Germany and the Premier League.
