The best young player of the last World Cup has already become the most expensive signing in Premier League history. A total of 121 million was paid for Enzo Fernandez by Chelsea, who offered a long contract that is already in the sights of FIFA and could intervene.

Amid intense negotiations, Chelsea reached an agreement with Benfica and the Portuguese club sold the world champion for 121 million euros. Subsequently, journalist Fabrizio Romano commented that the 2012 and 2021 Champions League winner signed a contract for eight seasons with Enzo until 2031.

In this context, FIFA could intervene for the duration of the contract between the Argentine national team and Chelsea. The rules of the international body establish that the duration of a contract between a player and a club can be a maximum of five years. The British team exceeded the three-year limit and there could be consequences for the future. According to ESPN, FIFA will modify these durations, but from the following season onwards, with no repercussions on the current season.

Can Enzo Fernandez play in the Champions League?

The Argentine, who signed an auspicious debut despite the draw against Fulham, is already registered for the Champions League, where the 'blues' will face Borussia Dortmund, in the round of 16. The midfielder already knows the weight of playing in the most important tournament at club level, as he was a protagonist with Benfica in the group stage.
