Enzo Fernández is still unable to achieve important things with Chelsea. The midfielder from Argentina landed in London at the beginning of the year in exchange for 121 million euros, from Benfica, after his brilliant performance at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, which earned him the award for best young player.  However, he arrived in the middle of the season to a team that was badly beaten and immersed in a defeatist dynamic.

Aside from this, Enzo offered outstanding individual performances that were not enough to achieve good results. The previous season was so disappointing that not only the coach was changed, but also several of those who were considered figures such as Kai Havertz, Mason Mount, N'Golo Kanté and Hakim Ziyech. Along the same lines, Todd Boehly, owner of the Blues, made available resources to buy two entire new teams, but there was no good planning in assembling the team and Chelsea continues to disappoint

This, in turn, had a full impact on the value of the members of the London team. Far from increasing his price, the constant disappointments, and the fact of not playing in any international cup, makes him devalued and now Enzo Fernández is not even close to those 121 million that they paid for him at the time and that represented a record in Premier League.

The Transfermarkt portal updated the prices of the players and several changed their position in the ranking among the most expensive footballers in the world. The most significant was that of Jude Bellingham, who amounted to 180 million euros and equaled Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland at the top of the table. However, Enzo is very far from the 121 million they paid for him after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. On the contrary, his price plummeted to 80 million, which places him as the 26th most valuable globally. .
