The World Cup final is finally upon us, and Sunday's showdown between Spain and Argentina in New Jersey promises to be an absolutely enthralling encounter between the two best teams in the tournament - with the emphasis very much on 'teams'.

Enzo Fernandez has courted controversy once again after appearing to troll England on social media following Argentina's dramatic World Cup semi-final win, with the Chelsea midfielder's celebrations and online antics drawing fierce backlash from Three Lions supporters and even forcing his own club into an embarrassing U-turn.

The midfielder's equaliser helped Argentina come from behind to beat the Three Lions 2-1, prompting widespread criticism of the club's online message.

Chelsea head coach Xabi Alonso has firmly expressed his desire to keep midfielder Enzo Fernandez at Stamford Bridge despite escalating exit rumours. The Argentinian international has been intensely linked with a move to Real Madrid after his agent allegedly explored summer exit options, but his new club manager remains determined to retain him.

Valentina Cervantes has insisted there is no desire for Enzo Fernandez and his family to leave England despite ongoing links with Real Madrid. The Chelsea midfielder's partner said the family is settled in London, with their children in school, while dismissing suggestions that a move is on the horizon.

Real Madrid have moved swiftly to shut down mounting speculation linking them with a sensational summer move for Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez. The Spanish giants issued a firm public statement to distance themselves from the Argentine World Cup winner, despite recent comments from the player's representative hinting at a Stamford Bridge exit.
