2025 Fantasy Outlook
Fernandez ended year three on a high, coming off his best statistical season and helping Chelsea secure a European trophy. He posted a career-best six goals and seven assists, showing clear growth in the attack. He also took a larger role of set pieces, something that seems to change by the game with Chelsea. When pushed forward in the formation, his numbers received a notable boost, but as long as he's a defensive midfielder next to Moises Caicedo, his numbers may never truly pop more than the 13 goal contributions he had last season.
Late call against Ajax
Fernandez (knee) could be an option for Wednesday's clash against Ajax in the Champions League, coach Enzo Maresca said in the press conference, according to Football London. "Enzo took part in the session yesterday. We have one more session this afternoon and we will decide with him tomorrow. It is not something we have to be worried about. It's to try and protect Enzo."
ANALYSIS
Fernandez missed the last game against Forest due to a knee problem that was mainly a precaution to avoid any major setbacks. The midfielder will be assessed again after the final training session ahead of Wednesday's clash against Ajax in the Champions League but could be an option for the game. If fully deemed fit, Fernandez should regain his undisputed starting role in the heart of the game for the Blues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Real Madrid monitoring status
Real Madrid are keeping close tabs on Fernandez, according to TBR Football.
ANALYSIS
Real Madrid have been keeping tabs on Fernandez for quite some time, although it's hard to see a scenario in which Chelsea will be open to parting ways with the 24-year-old Argentina international. Fernandez is one of the club's captains, and he's an integral piece of the team's long-term project. Real Madrid are expected to launch an offer in the summer of 2026, but it'd take a mammoth effort for the Blues to even consider it.
